Hic jacet Margareta Robinson, Filia Arthuri Robinson, ex agro Eboracensi Militis aurati, Uxor autem Roberti Jegon Armigeri, cui postquam castissimo Amoris Conjugalis Vinculo, per novem Annorum spatium conjuncta, quinque Liberos fœlicissimè peperisset, Sexta demum soboles Utero ejus adhuc inclusa expiravit, undè crebrò Convulsionem impetû conquassata, Animam Cœlo reddidit, quarto Die Decembris, A. D. 1638, cui superstes Maritus, hoc quicquid est Monumenti, certè longè infra meritum tam charæ Conjugis, Mœrens posuit. Quam tegit hic terræ Tumulus prius ipsa Sepulchrum Molle quidem Marmor, Vivaque Busta fuit. Quippe erat hæc Mortis reverentia, tangere Sacram Virtutum Acropolin, non erat ausa palam; Clamque intrans Uterum, tanquam quæ Vivere vellet, Dum Vitam simulat, Callida surripuit.
