    Epitaph of Jimena Muñoz
    Her grave, now lost, was once marked with an inscribed memorial stone that is now held by the Museo de León in that city. The epitaph reads:

    Quam deus a pena defendat dicta Semena Alphonsi vidui regis amica fui; Copia, forma, genus, dos morum, cultus amenus, Me regnatoris prostituere thoris, Me simul et Regem mortis persolvere legem. Fata coegerunt, que fera queque terunt Terdenis demptis super hec de mille ducentis, Quator eripies, que fuit era. Scies84
