Westminster Abbey:

In the south choir aisle of Westminster Abbey is a marble mural monument to non-conformist minister and hymn writer Isaac Watts. It shows a relief of Dr Watts seated in his study, with an angel guiding his pen, with his bust above. The monument is signed by sculptor Thomas Banks. The inscription reads: Isaac Watts D.D. [Doctor of Divinity] Born July 17 1674. Dyed Novr. 25 1748
