Deutsch: Gedenktafel im Frauenburger Dom: Nicolaus Copernicus aus Thorn, dem ehemaligen Kanonikus an dieser Kathedrale des Ermlandes und hochberühmten Astronomen, dessen Namen und Ruhm beide Kreise (d.h. Erd- und Himmelskreis) erfüllt hat. Dieses Monument haben zum Zeichen ihrer brüderlicher Liebe und Wertschätzung die Prälaten, Kanoniker und das gesamte Varmiensische (Ermländische Dom-) Kapitel errichtet, im Jahr 1735. Das Epitaph von 1580 mit einem Text von Cromer ist in Kriegen zerstört worden. Siehe File:Nicolaus Copernicus epitaph Frauenburg.jpg
English: Nicolaus Copernicus epitaph of 1735 in the Cathedral of Frombork (Frauenburg). To Nicholas Copernicus of Toruń, formerly a canon of this cathedral church of Varmia, a most renowned astronomer, whose name and glory have filled both spheres [i.e. heaven and earth]. The prelates, the canons, and the entire chapter of Varmia have erected, in token of brotherly love and esteem, this monument. An earlier epitaph with different wording, erected in 1580 by Cromer, had been destroyed in wars of the 17th or early 18th century, see File:Nicolaus Copernicus epitaph Frauenburg.jpg.
