«b»Epithet for a Sea Captain«/b»

After 1609 , Book in British Museum

Memorializing the life of James Beers (Bere) ships captain, lost at sea:

After much weary sayling, Worthy Bere

Arrived this quiet port, and harbers here.

As skillfully in honestie he brought

His humaine vessell home, as he was thought

Equal with any that by Card or Starr

Took out and brought again his Barke from farr.

So let him rest in quiet till he hear

The trumpet sound, when all must rise with Bere,

And for his fame and honest memorie,

This is his frail and brief eternity.

The church was burned in 1727, but the above is preserved in a manuscript collection of Kentish epitaths of 1724, in the Library of the British Museum.
