PANDOSTO, THE TRIUMPH OF TIME: BELLARIA'S EPITAPH by ROBERT GREENE

First Line: HERE LIES ENTOMB'D BELLARIA FAIR
Last Line: CURSE HIM THAT CAUS'D THIS QUEEN TO DIE.
Subject(s): DEATH; GRAVES; JEALOUSY; DEAD, THE; TOMBS; TOMBSTONES;
HERE lies entomb'd Bellaria fair,
Falsely accus'd to be unchaste;
Clear'd by Apollo's sacred doom,
Yet slain by jealousy at last.
Whate'er thou be that passeth by,
Curse him that caus'd this queen to die.
