Pascal

Pascal was buried in the Saint-Etienne du Mont church:

[Pascal Plaque]

THE BODY OF
BLAISE PASCAL
WHO DIED AUGUST 19, 1662
IN THIS PARISH OF
SAINT-ETIENNE DU MONT
WAS INTERED
NEAR THIS PILLAR
R.I.P

It looks to me like they're not exactly sure where he is any more...

[Pascal Epitaph]

Other than "Epitaph of Blaise Pascal", I don't really know what this says. If anyone can translate, please let me know.
