الصفحة 258 - When a man sees the prodigious pains and expense that our fore-fathers have been at in these barbarous buildings, one cannot but fancy to himself what miracles of architecture they would have left us, had they only been instructed in .the right way ; for when the devotion of those ages was much warmer than...
