Here buried lyes the body of Julian,
Sur William Strode's daughter of Newingham,
Of John Davie Esquire the late deare wife,
Who did Maye's fourteenth day depart this life,
In the sixteene hundred twenty & seventh yeare,
Of the Lord Christ her saviour most deare.
She worthy was by byrth, she was by grace,
Berean-like of a more noble race,
In that she ready was to here, to try,
God's preached word and in synceritie,
The same to keepe which made her during life,
A good, kinde, carefull mistres, mother, wife.
Syncerity she livinge did embrace,
And dyinge did exhort all to that grace.
To husband, children, servants, neighbours, frends,
Her death brought losse unspeakable yet tends,
To her great gayne who now for earthly pleasure,
Most heavenly joyes partaketh without measure".
