- Here lies the body of Miclah the wife of Cossel Jonas who died Sep the 4th 5539.
From the Hebrew inscription (Susser): Your desire was in the commandments. How beautiful were thy steps (Cant. 7;2). My daughter, blessed art thou saith thy brother (Ruth 3;10). Come in Peace, go to thy place. Return O perfect one to (the Rock who) hewed thee. Daughters are dressed in sackcloth at thy parting, because Miclah wife of Yekutiel is taken, she was a princess, the crown of her husband, she sacrificed her life for her husband and was buried on the 13th of the month Eytanim [= Tishri, see I Kings 8;2] in the year 'You gathered amongst the lilies' (Cant. 6;2) 5539, aged 64 years of her life.
