A faire Monument on the North wall of the Chancell, with this Inscription.
Christo optimo maxime, pietati & posteritati, Sacrum, Elizabethae Conjugis dulcissimae, Foeminae Lectissimae è Claris. Skinneriana, & Emersoniana Familiis oriundae, In qua (Rara Felicitate) Pietas cum Pulchritudine, Ingenium cum Virtute, Forma cum pudicitia, Mirifice conveniebant, Quae in primo puerperio, in ipso enixu, Animam Deo, Memoriam Mundo, Vitam Naturae, Carnem terrae, Patri puerulum, Amicis luctum, Conjugi Moerorem ineffabilem, Omnibus ingens sui ipsius desiderium moriendo Reliquit, W. Crashaius, hujus Ecclesiae Rector, Conjux longe Moestissimus multis cum Lachrymis Lugens Lubens Invitus Posuit.

I know that my Redeemer liveth, Iob 19. 25.

To the honour of Christ Jesus, to the praise of Piety, to the example of Posterity, and for the preservation of the godly memory of Elizabeth, his most worthily beloved Wife, in whom (by a rare Conjunction) God∣linesse with Comlinesse, Wisdome with Vertue, Beauty with Chastity, Youth with Discretion, and Discre∣tion with Devotion, were most sweetely combined; who in the prime of her yeeres, upon her first Childe, yeelded up, by untimely death, as her selfe often had fore∣told, her soule to God, her life to Nature, her body to the Earth, her memory to the World, and left to the pensive Earth a deare bought Sonne, to her friends heavinesse, hard to be removed, to her Husband sorrow, not to be expected, and to all that knew her, a longing desire after her,

William Crashaw, her most sad and sor∣rowfull Husband, Pastor of this Church, most unwilling to part with her, but most willing to honour her with many sighes and teares, dedi∣cated this Monument in assurance of her glorious Resurrection.

She died October 8. in the 24. yeere of her age.
