On the other fide of the medallion stands a beautiful figure of Britannia, with the British lion couchant at her feet. Beneath, in an opening of the rock, is the fubjoined Latin infcription, on a fine piece of polished porphyry, mentioning his defcent, and the manner of his death, which happened, while fighting for his country, on the 3d of February, 1743, in the 45th year of his age, and that the Senate of Britain confecrated this monument to his memory. In another opening of the rock, a little lower, is represented in bass relief a view of the engagement in which this great man perifhed; and at the bottom of the rock on the fides lie cannons, flags, anchors, &c. all of white marble.
