Lincolnshire, Burton - "....and soe doe wee"

Inscription - Christopher Randes 1639 - :

"Tu quisquis fueris dives sapiens generosus | Sis patiens clemenssis Uberalis amans | Dona tot hoc uno tumulo sunt clausaviator. | Ara fuit miseris area et aperta bonis | Quid tua deliquit pietas non conscia culpae |Hoc nisi culpa fuit te potuisse mori".

In the second column :

"En quam terra sinu defunctum laeta recepit j et tumet adventu facta superba suo | Tu Rosa Christe Rosis ciypeo nil aptius Umam | Christopheri suavem nomen honosque dabunt. |

Friend I desire noe needless Prayers of thee | But prayse God for his Saints and soe doe wee".
