Here Lyeth 

GEORGE YEO of

 Huyshe Esquire 

Who dyed at

 Fyeshliegh the 

XV

 of March 1606 

——–

 Here lieth the Body of GERTRUDE YEO 

Whose splendid vertues all ye world did know 

Her life was filled with Deeds of Charity 

Therefore many did Weep, Lament and Cry 

When their Loveing Benefactrix did Dye 

To Husband, Friends & Children shee was kinde 

Fewe such examples here are left Behinde 

Scarce any soule upon this earth doth live 

More ready to forget and to Forgive 

Yea this I may most safely say 

Scarce can the like be found for Piety 

Now Shee is gone & hath obtain’d the Crown

 In heaven where joyes & pleasures doe abound 

And there in presence of her Lord and Kinge 

Sweete Hallelelujahs evermore shall Singe 

Shee was the wife of GEORGE YEO of this 

Towne Gent who departed this life June ye 29 

Ætatis 1697 Suæ 36
