^{page 20 note [a]} This inscription, copied from a more antient one, and here exhibited, is engraved on a brass plate, let into a piece of solid oak of the same length and shape. It hung in the portreve's seat in the church, but is at present fixt in the partition between that seat and the chancel. The Secretary communicated to the Society the opinion of some unknown critic, who supposed that the inscription, though written at length, consists of two distichs, or stanzas of verses, as well from the measure and jingle, as from the strain of composition. The phrase Lunam lucidam in plenilunio lucentem, seems to favour this conjecture (as it does also the tradition relative to the 2 o astronomers); no elogy being more poetical, or more proper for a professor of astronomy, than the comparing him to one of the great luminaries, which had been the subject of his contemplation. We may therefore read it thus:

Nole Clode yr Ethrode Karlleyn Advocade llawnhade Llundeyn,

A Barnwr bede breynt apute ty nev Aro ty Havalie.

Selis Sunoeir Suma Seadam Uske eval kulke;

Deke kummode Doctor Kymmen lleva loe i llawn oleve.

Or perhaps better thus,

Selif sunnoier sum a seadam Uske
