FINIS.

[Footnote 10: There is a Memorial entered on the wall of

the Cathedral of Peterborough, for one [named ROBERT

SCARLET] who, being Sexton thereof, interred two Queens

therein (KATHARINE Dowager and MARY of Scotland); more

than fifty years interceding betwixt their several

sepultures. This vivacious Sexton also buried two

generations; or the people in that place twice over. Thus

having built many houses (so I find graves frequently

called _domus æternales_) for others: some, as it was

fitting, performed this last office unto him. [He died on

2nd July 1594. æt. 98.] THOMAS FULLER, _Worthies, &c._,

ii. 293., Ed. 1662.]

[Footnote 11: In the discourse of his Text, he only dealt

with general doctrine, of the vanity of all flesh. _Dean

R. FLETCHER_.]

[Footnote 12: The total of Queen ELIZABETH's expenses for

this Funeral amounted to £321. 14s. 6d.]

CUPID's Posies,

For Bracelets, Handkerchers, and Rings;

With Scarfs, Gloves, and other things.

Written by CUPID on a day,

When VENUS gave him leave to play.

_Verbum sat amanti._

The Lover sheweth his intent

By gifts, that are with Posies sent.
