Hence the carvings appear to have fuffered very- 
little diminution in this interval ; but Paetus’s mea- 
fures, which are engraved, and in conftant ufe as 
public ftandards, have been considerably lengthened. 
Therefore, allowing for both thefe circumftances, 
we may conclude, that Greaves’s London foot wanted 
2 parts in 1 000, to be to Auzout’s Paris foot, in the 
proportion of 1000 to 1065,4. 
Greaves’s meafure of the door-cafe of the Pantheon, 
9 inches within the jambs, is 19,602 of his London 
feet and decimal parts (7). Defgodetz found the 
meafure of the fame on the infide 1 8 feet 4-} inches 
Paris meafure, and on the outfide 1 8 feet 4^ inches, 
their difference is of a Paris inch ; the depth of 
the jambs is 4 feet io£ inches Paris meafure ; and

formed, that this London foot was given him by the late Martin 
Folkes, Efq; and that it was made by SilTon, according to Graham’s 
meafure.
