ANCIEN 7 T MEMORIAL BRASSES OF DORSET. 149 



" Hie jacet," or, more rarely, "orate pro anima," begins an 

 inscription to a priest, whilst it usually ends " cuius anime 

 propicietur Deus Amen," * sometimes shortened to initials only 

 as c. a. p. d. ; f no doubt fortunately, for the words given at 

 length caused the destruction of many a brass and monument.
