Mrs
Dobyns (1658)
The epitaph read thus:
Here lyeth a mother in our
mother's womb
who to her only child did prove a
tomb. Thus heavens did decree that she should have
a son, heir of her body and her
grave. Though she a mother was, she did begin
Strange ! not till after
death to lie in.
More for to tell you, who, what,
here doth lye
Would prove, witt, beauty and the
best must dye

Wolferlow - St Andrew |
 |
 |
 |
| Mid 13th century effigy of a
lady. NB This monument is under threat as the church may
pass into private hands in the near future.
Interesting feature: The angels appear to be drawing a face
cloth away from the lady's face, best seen in the photograph to
the right. This is a very unusual feature and, to my knowledge,
only occurs on a handful of military effigies in Yorkshire. |
