Saint Michaels Cornehill.
* 1.1Here lyeth Robert Fabian Alderman and Sheriffe of London, who com∣posed a laborious Chronicle of England and France, with the monuments, and the succession of the Lord Maiors of London, and died Anno Dom. 1511. for whom this Epitaph was made, now altogether defaced.
Like as the day his course doth consume,And the new morrow springeth againe as fast,So man and woman by Natures custome,This life to passe, at last in earth are cast.In ioy and sorrow, which here their time doe wast.Neuer in one state, but in course transitorie,So full of change is of this world the glory.
* 1.2Hic iacet in tumulo Doctor venerabilis HugoDauset olim Rector, vere fideique protectorM C quater .x. ter ix sit et I sexAprilisque die ter I: V semel I migrat ille.
* 1.3Here vndyr was beryed Robart Barnes by name,Citizon of London, and Mercer of the same:And this is written that others may remembyr,How godly he departed the twentyth on of Nouembyr.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
* 1.4Here lyth the body of Iohn Bootes wiff,Dissoluyd by deth to her fyrst matter dust;Who from the cares of this world departyd her liff,The twenty third day of the monyth of August,On thowsand fyue hundryd and seuen, beyngthreescore yeerys old iust.
