Hic de Francis genitus Propinquos postergat, Quamvis natus inclytus, Ne in nefas vergat. Merito Vincentiam Eremum elegit, Vincat ut malitiam Se Deo subegit. Paucos contubernio Eremo assumit, Vivit soli Domino Abs quo nil præsumit. Visitat miraculis Hunc Deus frequenter Notum fecit patulis Factis pertinenter. Famem patientibus Fert refectionem, Sitim sustinentibus Miram potionem. Aquam vertit in vinum Diu duraturum Panem opus alivinum Præstat opportunum. Mortuus deducitur Rudibus jumentis Nurnberg perducitur Divinis fomentis. Stant in loco humili Nec abinde cedant, Donec loci populi Locum sacrum edunt. Transferri se coeperat, Nil per hoc secutum, A Scotis redierat Corpus revolutum. Ad locum divinitus Primum vehebatur, Factum illud coelitus Cunctis propalatur. Illudentis facies In plaga notatur Mulieris species Passa commutatur. Or as Conrad Celtes has it in his hymn to the saint:-- Cumque jam longo fueras labore Fessus, et sedes meritus beatas Te senem nostras Deus impetrabat Linquere terras, Spiritus sanctos ubi liquit artus, Mox boves corpus tulerant agrestes Qua tuas sanctas modo personamus, Carmine laudes. Ergo jam coelo merito locatus Hanc velis urbem, mediis arenis Conditam, sanctis precibus juvare Sedulus orans. etc. [55] They and much of the rest of the church are now in course of restoration. [56] The Kirchner lives at No. 6 Burgstrasse. [57] These will be shown you if you ask for them. [58] See pp. 203-5. There is also a relief by Adam Krafft near the south-east door. [59] See p. 207. [60] Geschichte von Deutschen Malerei. [61] The clockworks at Prague, Strasburg and Wells tell the same tale. [62] Recently renovated. [63] The Kirchner (L. Burkman) lives in the far corner of the Gymnasium Hof, right of the church, in the house with a double flight of steps in front of it. [64] Durer's grave, No. 649 (see p. 196). W. Pirkheimer, 1414; Hans Sachs, 503; Veit Stoss, 268; Lazarus Spengler, 1320; Wenzel Jamnitzer, 664; Konrad Grübel, 200. [65] The best of these epitaphia, or grave-plates, are by Georg Schweigger, _e.g._ No. 1484. [66] All things have their origin and increase, but lo! the bull you see never was a calf. [67] I am inclined now to agree with those who attribute it to Peter Vischer's son and namesake. See my monograph on Peter Vischer, or Dr Seeger's P. Vischer der Jungere.
