Here suddenly the head a little hides Itself, where all its parts, which are in sight, And those unseen in the same place unite. Near to this head Is placed the figure of a man that moves Weary and sad, which the Greeks Engonasis do call, because he's borne About with bended knee.

Besides, in Boötes, A star of glittering rays about his waist, Arcturus called, a name renown'd, is placed. Beneath which is The Virgin of illustrious form, whose hand Holds a bright spike.
Here lies in fame under this stone, Philip and Alexander both in one; Heir to the Muses, the Son of Mars in Truth, Learning, Valour, Wisdome, all in virtuous youth, His praise is much, this shall suffice my pen, That Sidney dy'd 'mong most renown'd of men.
