"Entered a couple heare doth ly, that hatefull death did kill

wiche lyvinge loved as man and wife and bent to God there will

Whose names to tell thus weare they called, that deathe hathe reste of life

Edmon Hunt the Gentilman, and Margret hight (named) his wife

Children these had fourtene in all Daughters four, and Sonnes tene

Two Infants dyed, thre marchants weare, Lawiers foure, and one devine

These Huntes huntinge abrode the chase one Hunt oute hunted the rest

Who made this stone in memory, how God his huntinge blest

Who hopes by fayth heaven for his haven, in Christ that he shall finde

Where welcom once no farewell is, suche welcome God us sende

Obiit ille Anno domini.1558.Octobris.11.

Obiit illa Anno domini.1568.Decembris.3"
