Non hic Pyramides, non sculpta panegyris &c.
No Pyramids, nor Panegyrick Verse
Nor costly Heapes of Stone adorne Thy Hearse.
Wee with more thrift Thee to Thyselfe committ
Shouldst Thou lye otherwise, Thould'st loose by it.
For whosoever Lives and Dyes like Thee
Shall to Himselfe a Lasting Marble bee.
