Stained Glass Windows - St Cubert - Cubert, Cornwall - Stained Glass Windows on Waymarking.com

"The stained windows date to the second half of the 19th C and they are all memorials to one or other of the Hosken family. The one in the chancel by the High Altar shows us the Resurrection and the empty tomb; the one in the Baptistry shows us Jesus as the Good Shepherd and the parable of the Good Samaritan. The one just adjacent to the South transept shows the moment when Mary visits Elizabeth and Elizabeth who is preparing to give birth to John the Baptist greets her with the words “Blessed art thou among women”. The final window is by far the finest example of the glass makers’ art and this one is signed by Alfred Hemmings. It was inserted in 1902 in memory C H Hosken who was vicar here of so many years. It shows the young Christ in the centre, on the left there is Samuel as a boy and on the right the boy David, the Shepherd King. Below the West window of the South aisle there is the oldest memorial in the church. The language, the spelling and the design suggests this could be 17th C and bears a poignant expression of devotion on the part of a son to his parents. The words, difficult to discern, are:

“Notice I must go and leave this world whether I will or no
Mourn not for me my parents dear, Tho’ you have lost your
Son Still Trust in God Cheer up your heart, Tho’ I am dead
and gone”.
