Hello
My Latin is not what it was, and I would appreciate a rendering of
the 'dedication' by Thomas Carew at the start of his poem about the
death of Maria Wentworth, whose tomb is in St George's, Toddington
"Thomae Comitis Cleveland (that's OK) filia praemortua prima
Virgineam animam exhalavit"

Well? What was it?
