Celio Calcagnini's epigram on Raphael.

Raphaelis Urbinatis Epitaphium
Quodcumque aut rarum est aut certe nobile terris
Divino Urbinas hauserat ingenio;
Ille manu vivos duxit de marmore vultus;
Spirabat tabulis ora animata suis.
Ille Deum templa alta et magno digna Leone
Condidit et priscis invidiosa deis.
Tile decus faciemque antiquam redderet unus
Si modo fata sinant, maxima Roma, tibi.
