An Epitaph upon a vertuous young Gentlewoman, who after seven yeares marriage expired.

Well borne, well bred, brought up with cost and care,
Sweet Infant, hopefull child, and virgin chaste.
Marriage which makes up women, made her rare,
Matron and maide, with all choise vertues grac't,
Loving and lov'd of all (her husband chiefe)
Liv'd to our great joy, dyde to all our griefe.
