An Epitaph on Niobe turned to Stone.
THis Pile thou seest built out of Flesh, not Stone,Contains no shroud within, nor mouldring bone:
This bloodless Trunk is destitute of TombeWhich may the Soul-fled Mansion enwombe.
This seeming Sepulchre (to tell the troth)Is neither Tomb nor Body, and yet both.
