74 ORNAMENT ON THE EARLY CROSSES OF CORNWALL. 



Part III. 



MIS CELLANEO US ORNA MENT. 



Under this last heading are included the different forms of 

 ornament, which, as will be seen, cannot be said to belong to 

 either of the two preceding divisions of Celtic or Incised orna- 

 ment, and, as they are of an entirely different character, they 

 must, on this account, be dealt with separately. 



The varieties of this ornament are divided into four parts, viz., 

 ( 1 ), Crosses, and patterns produced by flat sinkings ; (2), Chequer 

 work; (3), Patterns produced by bead mouldings ; and (4), Crosses 

 and ornament in relief. The ornament is all classified in the analy- 

 sis, and on the information therein contained I must chiefly depend 

 for the descriptions, giving as before, a detailed account of two 

 typical examples. I trust by adopting this course, to convey to 

 my readers a satisfactory idea of this curious class of ornament, 

 interesting perhaps, rather from its peculiarity, than from its 

 beauty. 



The following is a list of 46 crosses, &c, which have 

 examples of miscellaneous ornament and crosses upon them.
