To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The final type of imagery found on Tidewater gravestones appears on the side panels of certain chest-tombs. The imagery includes the skull, cherub, hourglass, drapery and flowers. The drapery imagery represents the drapery which was used on hearses and palls and biers. The drapery was often left at the gravesite to mark the grave.^^ On tombs with this motif cherubs and skulls are often depicted as peeking out from behind the drapery (Fig. 13). Examples of this style in Tidewater Virginia are de...finitely of English origin and show striking similarities to English stones illustrated by Ludwig.^^ The cherubs represent the immortal component of the deceased and the hopes for Resurrection, while the skull represents the corruptible nature of the deceased. The combination of these motifs can be seen as the triumph of eternal life over death. Another motif used is the winged hourglass, repre- sentative of the fleeting nature of life. As the New England Primer noted: "As runs the Glafs, Man's Life doth pafs".^^ Flowers, a symbol of life also ap- pear on some chest-tombs.
