Suggests inclined planes (mounds) of earth, as the means used for the 

 erection of such monuments as Stonehenge. The stones were levered up 

 the sides of the " aggeres" or earth -mounds; one end (of each stone intended 

 for an upright) lowered into holes dug in the mound ; the top-stones put 

 on ; and finally the mound of earth was cleared away.

Edition of 1888 : see Vol. I., p. 256, in which the original sketch of Stone- 

 henge by Turner is described as " perhaps the standard of storm-drawing." 

 Vol. V., p. 147, contrasts Turner's drawings of Salisbury Cathedral and 

 of Stonehenge. The engravers have been quite unable to do justice to 

 Turner's original drawings.
