Non modò diuitijs & auito stemmate clarum,
Sed musa, ingenio, sed pietate virum.
Clerus, eques, populus pullata veste Britannus
Hunc cassum lugent lumine Lewkenorem.
Te quo{que} (quâ sociâ plures foeliciter annos
Lewkenor exegit) chara Susanna, tuum
Lewkenorem moestae properantem ad limina mortis
Et pudor & pietas deseruisse vetant.
Vos simul extinctos crudeli funere mecum
Defleturo puto pectora mille pia:
Vos & longa dies & vita nouissima iunxit,
Nec nostro licuit dissociare metro.
