Description: Elizabeth was buried in Westminster Abbey. The wax effigy carried on her funeral hearse was remade in 1760, and can today be found in the Abbey Museum. I have transferred the format of this catch to modern notation. The meaning is unaltered. Naughty Mr Hook (one of Jane Austen's favourite composers).
