She lives, hee's dead,
by love, though grieving,
In him, for her,
yet dead, yet living.
Both dead, and living?
then what is gone?
One halfe of both,
not any one.
One mind, one Faith,
one hope, one Grave,
In life, in death,
they had, and still they have.
Amor conjugalis aeternus.
Hic jacet Tom Shot-hose,
sine Tombe, sine Sheets, sine Riches,
Qui vixit sine Gowne,
sine Cloake, sine Shirt, sine Breeches.
In the Vestrie South Window, there is the figure of Thomas Heritagh, in a red Mantle: Right before him in another pane is the Mercers Armes, of which Company (it seemes) he was free. This man was the builder of this Vestry-house.

If Youth, Religion, Vertue, and the rest Of Graces that in fraile Man are the best, Could have conser'd long life, this Funerall Verse Had not so soone beene offered at thy Herse By thy sad Widdow: whose Fate did allow Her onely three weeks happinesse, to know How good thou wert: and what remaines of life, To her yeelds sorrow: she was once a wife To such an husband, whose like 'twere in vaine, And flattery to her griefe, to hope againe. But thou wert flesh, and that to earth must turne, Thy pure soule blest; she onely left to mourne.
Adjoyning to this on the right hand, is a faire Marble Monument in Ovall:
