	Translated by Dr J E Sandys, public orator at St John's College, Cambridge:-
	"Buried beneath this tomb lie William Sanders"
	"And his Consort, Margaret:"
	"Happy her name, happy her name and fame;"
	"He an Esquire who rejoiced in his day in labour of Princes;"
	"She a Pattern to all, holy and saintly in life."
	"Happy were they in their home in the equal lot of their wedlock;"
	"Blest in their wealth and their faith;"
	"Blest in their sires and their sons."
	"Great were the pledges of favour divine they received in abundance;"
	"Greatest of all was the fame won them by Edwin their son."
	"Doctor was he, and Proctor, and Head"
	"of a college at Cambridge;"
	"Thrice as a Bishop enthroned;"
	"Thrice he was head of a See."
	"They that were one in their life, and their love,An their hallowed affection,"
	"Resting beneath this stone wait for the life to come."
