Here lyeth buried one More of Norwich, to whose memory, some wit of those times, (but the time of his death I doe not know) playing and making dalliance with his name, made this Epitaph following.

More had I once, More would I haue, More is not to be had; The first I .... the next is vaine, The third is too too bad. If I had vs••d with More regard, The More that I did giue, I might haue made more vse and fruit Of More while he did liue. But time will be recald no more, More since are gone in briefe. Too late repentance yeelds no more Saue onely paine and griefe. My comfort is, that God hath More Such Mores to send at will, In hope whereof I sigh no more, But rest vpon him still.
