The college is a pretty stone building, it hath a small 

 well- adorned chapel, with a steeple, a cloister, and a 

 library. 



Wednesday, July the 16th, we proceeded on through 

 Alresford, near which place we saw a large standing pool 

 of water, frequented by divers sorts of fowl, as coots 

 [Fulica atra,'] ducks \_Anas boschus,'] &c. It belongs to

Thursday, July the 17th, we rode through Farnham,

 chapel is a fan- building, having a body and two side 

 isles ; it wants of the height of King's College Chapel in 

 Cambridge, but the body alone is near as wide, arched on 

 the roof with stone, as also are the side isles, and the two 

 wings or cross building ; the arch is very flat, and 

 curiously adorned with carved work, in both which 

 respects it is not inferior to King's College Chapel, and 

 in the latter beyond it. In the middle of the roof of this 

 chapel is the arms of King Edward III, swrounded with 

 the arms of the knights, who were first created of the 

 order. The seats in the choir are canopied over with 

 good carved work of wood. The dean's seat is covered
