Monument to Sir Edward Giles, Dean Prior

Photograph of the Monument to Sir Edward Giles (1566-1637), in the Church of St. George, Dean Prior.

The epitaph below was composed by Robert Herrick (1591-1674):

"What more than these can tombs or tomb stones pay
But here's the sunset of a tedious day
These two asleep are, I, but be undrest
And so to bed; pray wish us all good rest."
