Note BZ — THE 'LIVES' (continued 3)
Reading edition
In MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 61v, Aubrey gives a rough drawing of the monument. The lower part is an oblong block, 'thicknes ½ yard: one entire Portland stone' with the inscription on the front. Above is a laurel wreath carved in stone. Behind is what seems to be a mural tablet.
In MS. Aubr. 8, fol. 6v, Aubrey asks, 'quaere if ... Chapman is in the first part?' i.e. in MS. Aubr. 6 (Lives, Part i.): but no life of Chapman is found in that volume.
