'Tis dauntless, loyal, virtuous Beauclerk's urn.

Sweet were his manners, as his soul was great,

And ripe his worth, though immature his fate;

Each tender grace that joy and love inspires,

Living, he mingled with his martial fires:

Dying, he bid Britannia's thunders roar;

And Spain still felt him, when he breath'd no more.


Epitaph at Welwyn, Hertfordshire.
