22t SIR CHRISTOPHER WREN. NoV. (?, 



The prefent Chapter of the Cathedral having ad- 

 mitted fculpture into it, in the monumrnts of Dr. 

 Johnfon and Mr. Howard, it is to be hoped that the 

 iliuihious architeft of the fabric will partake of the ho- 

 nour of a itatue in his own cathedral, the prefent far- 

 ccphag-us erefted to hiin, with a quibbling kind of epi- 

 t,:phj being feidom feen or noticed by perfons who vlfit 

 the church. The effe£l of decoration on this at pre- 

 fent denuded fabric may be feen, by infpedting a piate, 

 publKhed forne years :^go by Mr. Gywnne, in which 

 the dome and fome other parts of it are feen as orna- 

 mented according to the intention of Sir ChrKtophcr. 

 To make the perfpecllve of the church appear to the 

 greateft advantage, and to be magnificent indeed, the 

 heavy and immenfe organ that crofTes the entrance in- 

 to the choir fhould be placed on one fide, as is done at 

 Winchefler, and painted glafs iliould be inferted into 

 the eaft window.
