DAVID ZEMAN, &c. Monument
Parentibus dilectissimis, David Zeman mercatori, notæ integritatis viro ; necnon Margaretæ Puræ, uxori
amantissimæ; Patricius Zeman mercator, filius, hoc monumentum cædendum curavit parentavitque. Pater decessit
die 4 mensis Maii, anno 1654 Ætatis suæ 48, master vero 31 Decembris 1669.
Davidis est tumulus Zemani; ubi sede quiescit
Hac placide, & charæ conjugis ossa jacent;
Sobrius ut prudens, dictis jucundus amænis,
Innocuus, nota est intaminata fides.
Vita deoque placens ; uxoris maxima cura,
Usque viri cupiens stringere signa pedum ;
Nunc clo gaudent : animos ubi nulla fatigat
Cura, sed est lux, pax, gloria, plena quies.
To his most bloved parents, David Zeman merchant,
a man of known integrity; as also to Margaret Pourie,
his most loving wife: Patrick Zeman merchant, their son, caused this monument to be erected.
They died as above.
This David Zeaman`s tgomd; wherein he lies,
With his dear wife, in grateful obsequies;
Sober and wise, he pleasant in his talk,
Faithful and harmless in his holy walk;
His life did please the Lord: his wife`s great care
Was, how to follow his example rare:
Now both, in heav`n enjoy eternal rest,
In light and glore, where no care doth molest. |
