Alexander Pope in St Marys Church, Twickenham

The nave of St Marys Church, Twickenham, looking towards the chancel. Just visible is Pope's plaque on the floor slightly to the right of the furthest row of pews on the left.

'HERE ARE BURIED
THE MORTAL REMAINS
OF
ALEXANDER POPE
1688–1744
Qui nil molitur inepte
R. I. P.

 

This tablet was placed
by three members of the Faculty of English
of Yale University
1962'

 

And on one of the church walls:

'TO THE MEMORY OF

ALEX. POPE, WHOM SHE NVRSED IN
HIS INFANCY AND CONSTANTLY AT-
TENDED FOR THIRTY EIGHT YEARS,
