have presented to us something more than the meagre and unsatisfactory notices in this part of his work.

We do not mean to insist that an author has not the full and absolute right to form his own plan, and to circumscribe it within such limits as he may think proper; but we do insist that whatever may be its plan, the work should be in itself complete, and justify the expectations which it holds out to the public.

We are, however, told by the learned Professor, that he has reserved for the subject of a future essay, the cloisters, chapter house, and other monastic buildings connected with the Cathedral (Pref. p. vi.) We, therefore, trust he may yet be induced to consider it due to his own well-established fame, and to the expectations of an admiring public, to incorporate with his contemplated essay, a more accurate and satisfactory architectural history of the Cathedral than that which is the subject of our present animadversions.

In the earnest hope that the learned Professor will, at some future period, realize these expectations, we shall be exceedingly brief in our concluding remarks.

To the intelligent reader, it is scarcely necessary to observe, that from the increased facility of communication, he may, on the same day, and with little fatigue, visit our two most remarkable national cathedrals. He may thus survey the Classical Structure of St. Paul, London, and explore the Gothic Cathedral of Canterbury. He may compare the architectural styles of the two churches, and the different impressions which they make upon the mind. The one he will find

'Coldly correct, and classically chaste." The other exhibits all the luxuriance of an enthusiastic imagination. The one displays at every step the chastened skill of the architect; the other is "instinct with Deity!" The one resembles the stately avenues of the well-ordered park; the other, the stupendous majesty of the primeval forest. In the one, we admire the genius of the architect; in the other, the soul is absorbed in contemplation of that Divine Being to whose glory and service it is dedicated!

"TILL AT LENGTH

SUBLIMED TO RAPTURE AND ENTHUSIASTIC HEAT,
WE FEEL THE PRESENT DEITY."
