The remainder of a Rood Screen (circa 14th C) shows the dance of death with the Latin inscriptions:
“I should have been as though I had not been born, I should have been carried from the womb to the grave”. A female skeleton offers a male skeleton a flower, and the Latin inscription reads “Man that is born of woman hath but a few days and is full of trouble. He comes forth like a flower and is cut down.”- Sparham, England
