MEMOIR OF RAY. 
Non Sanguine et Genere insignia, 
Sed quod majus, 
Propria Virtute Illmtris • 
De Opibus Titulisque obtinendis 
Parum solicitus, 
H<ec potius mereri voluit quam adipisci : 
Dum sub Privato Lare, sua Sorte contentus 
(Fortuna lautiori dignus) consenuit. 
In rebus aliis sibi moduni facile imposuit, 
In Studiis nullum. 
Quid Plura ? 
Hisce omnibus, 
Pietatem minime fucatam adjunxit, 
Ecclcsice Anglicance 
(Id quod supremo lialitu confirmavit) 
Totus et ex Animo addictus. 
Sic bene latuit, bene vixit Vir beatus, 
Que?n PrcEsens JEtas colit , Postera mirabitur. 
We are told by Sir James Edward Smith, that in 
1737, the monument bearing the above inscription 
having gone very much to decay, it was restored at 
the charge of Dr Legge, and removed for shelter 
into the church. Forty years afterwards, the tomb 
again underwent a repair by the care of the present 
Sir Thomas Grey Callum and others,* who subjoined 
a third inscription, as follows : — 
* It has been again repaired by Mr Walker, the Fee- 
tor of Black Notley.
