Scriptum vero est in tumba eiusdem Augustini epitaphium huiusmodi: Hic requiescit domnus Augustinus Doruvernensis archiepiscopus primus, qui olim huc a beato Gregorio Romanae urbis pontifice directus, et a Deo operatione miraculorum suffultus, Aedilberctum regem ac gentem illius ab idolorum cultu ad Christi fidem perduxit, et completis in pace diebus officii sui, defunctus est septimo kalendas Iunias, eodem rege regnante.
Moreover, in the tomb of the same Augustine was written such an epitaph as followeth: Here lieth in rest the lord Augustine, first archbishop of Canterbury, who aforetime sent hither of the blessed Gregory, bishop of the city of Rome, and strengthened of God by working of miracles, won over Ethelbert the king and his people from the worship of idols to the faith of Christ, and so fulfilling in peace the days of his office he died the 26th of May in the reign of the same king.
