To digg the dvst encloased heare.
Bleste be the man thatspares thes stones,
And cvrst be he thatmoves my bones
take a piece of paper and write some words down and most important leave it in your will
In England.
you write somthing nice and sweet

This cemetery has been here since the early 1800's so it's not surprising that the epitaph on that tombstone is no longer legible. The author suggested his own epitaph in his final book.

The inscription, on a stone near Shakespeare's grave, is a plea not to disturb his bones, and a curse on anyone who does. He did want his bones moved to the charnel house near to the church.
