Inscription on the Tomb of Peter the Hermit.—At Huy, on the Meuse, is shown the tomb where Peter the Hermit was buried: it is in the shape of an obelisk, and has an inscription on each of the four sides. Of this inscription, which is curious, and which I copied when I was there, I have lost the greater part: can one of your correspondents supply it for me, or tell where the lines are originally to be found, as I fancy they are adapted to, and not made for, the monument.
The part of the inscription which I have runs as follows:
(INSCRIPTION.)
"Soldat du Pape Urbain, aux cris de 'Dieu le veut,'
Il a précipité l'Europe sur l'Asie;
Le péril arrivé, sa sainte frenesie
N'a plus trouvé qu'un cri arrive 'Sauve qui peut.'
Dieu,
L'intolérant l'outrage, insulte à sa grandeur,
