_Hour-glasses and Inscriptions on old Pulpits_ (Vol. ix., pp. 31. 64.).--In
St. Edmund's Church, South Burlingham, stands an elegant pulpit of the
fifteenth century, painted red and blue, and relieved with gilding. On it
there still remains an old hour-glass, though such appendages were not
introduced till some centuries probably after the erection of this pulpit.
The following legend goes round the upper part of this pulpit, in the old
English character:
"Inter natos mulierum non surrexit major Johanne Baptista."
