A thousand, and twenty and eight,
When Emperor Henry held the sway,

A giant, incorrupt, and tall of strength,
Was within his tomb descried,
Reaching up o'er the city wall's side,

Four and a half feet long, or near,
By his head a lamp did glow,
And an epitaph gave this to know:
Filius Euandri Pallas quem lancea Turni
Militis occidit, more suo iacet hic.
