While faithful earth doth thy oold relics keep, And soft as was thy nature is thy sleep, Let here the pious, humble, placed above, Witness an husband’s grief, an husband’s love; Grief that no rolling years can e’er efface, And love, that only with himself must cease; And let it bear for thee this heartfelt boast— ’Twas he that knew thee best, that loved thee most. In the south aisle is a low ornamented recess, said to have contained the effigy of an abbot of the convent. Another recess is called the Bishop’s throne; and among other relics of antiquity, is preserved a curious carved oaken chair, supposed to have belonged to one of the monks.—“A great part of the chauncell” of this church, as Carew relates, “fell suddenly downe upon a Friday, very shortly after the publick service was ended, which heavenly favour, of so little respite, saved many persons’ lives, with whom immediately before it had been stuffed; and the devout charges of the well-disposed parishioners quickly repayred this ruine.” _Cuddenbeck_ the antient seat of the Bishops, has long been occupied as a farm, and now exhibits but little of its ancient episcopal grandeur. Quitting St. Germains, at the distance of about a mile, is the direct coach road from Tor Point, and within four miles of Liskeard is _Catchfrench_, the seat of Francis Glanville, Esq., which being built on an eminence, has a commanding effect; although it is a very comfortable and spacious building, yet it does not possess much architectural beauty. The west front is embattled and faced with slate, and at a distance, with the surrounding scenery, has a pleasing effect. The road from Tor Point to Liskeard is extremely hilly, and in many places even dangerous. _Coledrimick_, another spacious mansion like Catchfrench, is also in the parish of St. Germains. It stands about a mile from the road, and within three miles of Liskeard.
