Juxta hunc locum jacet humatum cxspectans iustorum

Domino | 15 0 die February 1650 annoque aetatis suae 35 0 
unica existens filia et haeres Edwardi | Baylyes nuper de 
Haselor tres filios (scilt) Willum, Edmund, et Johcm Chambers | 
unamque filiam nomine Elizabeth post se ex eodem marito 
reliquit. 
Siste pedem quaeso, cujus cinis estque requiras : 
Hie pietas, virtus, forma, pudorque jacet. 
Virgo pudica fuit, pia conjux, almaque mater 
Quae multo fletu conditur hoc tumulo. 
Digna quidem vixifse diu florentibus annis 
Ablata est generis spesque decusque sui. 
Nondum terdenos cum quinis vixerat annos 
Parca ferox ultra cum superefse negat. 
Nil pietas virtus possunt, nil forma pudorque. 
Nil juventa potest : mors rapit omne cito. 
Et nunc Anna vale ; tu terque quaterque beata es, 
Vivere cui Chris o contigit atque mori.
