“What a glorious time they must have in that wilderness, far from mankind and election day!”

“Here lieth the worthy warrior
Who never bloodied sword;
Here lieth the noble counsellor,
Who never held his word.
Here lieth his Excellency,
Who ruled all the state;
Here lieth the Earl of Leicester,
Whom all the world did hate.”
—Anonymous. 16th century.
