EPITAPH ON WILLIAM OF WYKEHAM.
557
This Church's Bishop, who repair'd its Frame.
How great in Bounty, rich and poor depose;
How wise in Council, all the Kingdom knows;
By founded Colleges his pious Breast
Oxford and Winchester will both attest.
Pray for such Worth, ye who behold his Tomb,
And wish Eternal Life to be its Doom!
