In Fuller’s words

“On the coffin these / two lines from his / epitaph by Cardinal / Bembo. / Hic ille est Raphael / timuit quo sospite vinci / Rerum magna parens / et moriente mori._ / How would he live, / but, having lived, how / could he die. [...] The two lines in Card e / Bembo's epitaph have / been translated / Questi è quel Raffael cui / vivo [vintu?] / Esser temeo natura e / morte estinta”

“On the coffin these / two lines from his / epitaph by Cardinal / Bembo.”

Fuller, Margaret. "Notebook: Artists." Houghton Library, Harvard University; bMS Am 1086 (94); Box 6.

Inferred Fuller transcribes the Latin couplet from Raphael's epitaph by Cardinal Bembo; this is not a published literary work but a well-known inscriptional text.
