PART III. ARCHITECTURE. 113 



formable to my ideas of it; but Storton Castle, Downton, and 

 Foxley, come near it in several respects. The house being 

 built (which will be soon done, as little or no hewn masonry 

 would be necessary), the chief art will consist in training the 

 creepers to proper places, leaving frequently large spaces of the 

 wall quite naked in-order to preserve breadth and contrast. 

 Plate IV. fig. 2, represents a building of this kind newly 

 finished, but without any creepers added to it. 



To these species of style might be added a great number of 

 others equally characteristic ; but it is not necessary in a work 

 like the present. The ingenious reader will easily conceive, 

 from these, what is intended, and what can be done. Let me 

 only caution the architect to preserve harmony in every st} T le 

 which he attempts; and indeed, in producing a new species of 

 style, he will frequently be more certain of escaping censure by 

 attending chiefly to variety. , *
