Wife of the poet John Donne. Her memorial was destroyed many years ago but the text of her epitaph survives in her husband's handwriting, and was used to create this tablet. 'Her husband John Donne made speechless by grief, sets up this stone to speak, brings his ashes to hers in a new marriage under God'. Cause of death: in childbirth
