1369, and lyeth at the Feet of Edward her Husband, and these Verses annexed:

Guielmi Hanonis sobales postrema Philippa,     
Hic Roseo quondam pulchra decore jacet.
Tertius Edwardus Rex ista conjuge lætus     
Materno suasu Nobiliumque fuit.
Frater Johannes Comes Mavortius Heros,     
Huic illam voluit consociare viro.
Hæc junxit Flandros conjunctio sanguinis Anglis:     
In Francos venit hinc Gallica dira lues.
Dotibus hæc raris viguit Regina Philppa,     
Forma præstanti, religione, fide.
Fœcunda nata est proles numerosa parenti,     
Insignes peperit magnanimosque duces.
Oxonii posuit studiosis optima nutrix     
Regineas ædes, palladiamque scholam.

Conjux Edwardi jacet hic Regina Philippa.
Disce vivere.

Fair Philip, William Henaults Child,     
And youngest Daughter deere;
Of Roseate Hue and Beauty bright,     
In a Tomb lyes hilled here.
Edward the Third, through Mothers Will     
And Nobles good Consent,
Took her to Wife, and joyfully     
With her his Time he spent.
His Brother John a Martial Man,     
And eke a valiant Knight,
Did link this Woman to this King     
In Bonds of Marriage Rite.
This Match and Marriage thus in Blood,     
Did bind the Flemings sure,
To Englishmen, by which they did     
The Frenchmens Wreck procure.
This Philip stowd in Gifts full rare,     
And Treasures of the Mind;
In Beauty bright, Religion, Faith,     
To all and each most kind.
A fruitful Mother Philip was,     
Full many a Son she bred:
And brought forth many a worthy Knight,     
Hardy and full of Dread:
A careful Nurse to Students all;     
At Oxford she did found
Queens Colledge; she, Dame Pallas Schoole.     
That did her Fame resound.
Learn to live.

Gallorum mastix jacet hic Henricus in urna.
Domat omnia virtus.
Pulchra virumque suum sociat tandem Katharina.
Otium fuge.

O merciful God, what a Prince was this,
Which his short Time in Martial Acts spent.
In Honour of Conquest, that Wonder to me it is,
How he might compass such Deeds excellent.
And yet for that his Mind nothing detent,
All ghostly Counsel * for his Soul to provide,
Out of this World, ere he fatally should slide.

So though I had Tully his Eloquence,
Or of Seneca the grave Morality,
Of of Solomon the perfect Sapience,
Or the sweet Ditties of Dame Calliope;
Yet might I not in Prose or other Dittie,
Accordingly advance this Prince his Fame,
Or with due Honours to enhaunce the same.

Considering his Acts, whereof Parcell apppeare
In this rude Worke, with many more left out:
The Time also was lesse than ten Yeare,
That he so shortly brought all Things about,
By divine Grace furthered no * Doubt:
That mighty † Lord be holpe his ghostly Knight;
With Grace and Honour to passe this Worlds Fight.

And to have Reward double and condigne,
And first for martiall Acts by him done,
To be advanc'd amongst the Worthies nine,
And for his Vertue usd by him eftsoone,
With many good Deeds which he on Earth had done.
Above the Heirarchies, he is (I trust) now stalld,
That was on Earth the King of Kings calld.

Katharine Valois, Daughter to Charles the Sixth, King of France, and Wife to Henry the Fifth. Who (he being dead) took in Marriage Owen Teudor, borne in Wales, his Race descending from King Cadwallader. Of her he begot Edmund Earl of Richmond, Jasper Duke of Bedford, and another that took on him a Monastical Habit at Westminster. She dyed Anno 1437, and was buried by King Henry the Fifth.

Hic Katharina jacet, Francorum Filia Regis,
Hæres & Regni (Carole Sexte) tui,
Henrici Quinti thalamo bis læta jugali,
Nam sic vir duplici clarus honore fuit:
Jure suo Anglorum, Katharinæ jure triumphans
Francorum obtinuit jus, decus imperii.
Grata venit lætis felix Regina Britannis,
Perque Dies celebrant quattuor ore Deum.
Edidit Henricum gemibunda puerpera Regem,
Cujus in Imperio Francus & Anglus erat.
Non sibi nec Regno felici Sidere natum,
Sed Patri & Matri Religione parem.
Post ex Oweno Tiddero tertia proles,
Nobilis Edmundus te, Katharina, beat:
Septimus Henricus quo non præstantior alter,
Filius Edmundi, gemma Britannia fuit:
Felix Uxor ergo * , mater, ter filia felix,
Ast Avia hæc felix terque quaterque fuit.
Otium fuge.
