very lively Carvings and Paintings, and Figures both of 
Men and Women, as far as the Breaft and Shoulders ; 
but roiferably defac'd and broken. Under tliefe Statues^ 
or by their fides, are in the unknown Charafler, the 
Names probably of the Perfoos there buried, or by 
them reprefented ; or elfe fome other Memorials of them. 
We entred one of thefe by a Doar on the South fide, 
from which was a Walk crofs the whole Building juQ. in 
the middle. But the Floor was broke up, and fo gave 
us a fight of a Vault below, divided after the fame man- 
ner. The Spaces on each hand were again fub-divided 
into fix Partitions by thick Walls, each Partition being 
capable of receiving the largeft Corps : and piling them 
one above another, as their way appears to have been , 
each of thofe Spaces might contain ar leaft fix or ftveo 
Bodies. For the loweft, fecond, and third Stories, thofe 
Partitions were uniform, and altogether the fame,- fave 
from the fecond Floor, which anfwered the main En- 
trance, one Partition was referved for a Stair-Cafe. 
Higher than this, the Building, being fomething contra- 
fted towards the top, would not afford fpace for the 
continuation of the fame Method : Therefore the two 
uppermofl Rooms were not fo parted, nor perhaps ever 
had any Bodies laid in them. Unlefs it was that of the 
Founder alone, whofe Statue wrapt up in Funeral Appa- 
rel, and in a lying Pofture, is placed in a Nich, or ra- 
ther Window in the Frotxt of the Monument, fo as to 
be vifible both within and without. Near to this Statue 
was the following Infcription.
