Lucas and Lisle are celebrated in two contemporary poems:

  • The Loyal Sacrifice, 8vo, 1648,
  • An Elegy on the Murder committed at Colchester upon Sir C. Lucas and Sir G. Lisle, 4to, 1648.

A portrait of Lucas, by Robert Walker, was in the possession of Lord Lyttelton in 1900. Engraved portraits are in Warburton's Prince Rupert and in the illustrated edition of Clarendon's Rebellion, said to be from a painting by William Dobson.
