It reads as follows:

"Here lies Sir Oliver St John, Knight of the Bath, who died on the 12th day of January, in the year of our Lord 1582. He was a man of great honour and virtue, and was much beloved by all who knew him. He was a faithful servant of Queen Elizabeth, and served her in many important capacities.
