fo EXAMINE THÉ REMAINS, &C. 15 



arrived af anotlier Temple whose ruinous Pjres 

 we had obsorved in passing to Chandi Sewo, on 

 the right — these cousist of one principal Tem- 

 ple in the centre of a Square of smaller ones ; 

 hut some of theni were so entirely ruined, that 

 I could not determine the real niimber that once 

 existed, though 1 guess thcre might have been 

 about fonrtcen or sixteen. I think this wa^ 

 iiamed Tonongo. The central Temple Was square 

 and plain within, surmounted by a pyramidal 

 roof built up in steps within ; its stones were 

 massy black ish blooks, and ornaniented a good 

 deal in a superior stile without. No Image or 

 Sculpture within. — ^Eleven arched niches were 

 wof ked in the wall with Gothic arched tops. 



18 — y/ithout this beautiful edifice^ I found 

 ahlock lyiiig, of about three and a half feet square 

 and two feet thick^ on which a beautiful fcmale 

 figure was sculptured in relievo and defended 

 by a border equally thick (see No. 13) the 

 beauty and graceof the attitude was striking ; — it 

 seems to hold a folded parasol in the right 

 hand, and a Tulip or Lotus in the left — this 

 stone probably was worked into the walls of one 

 of these Temples, but I am uncertain which.
