Excerpt from Rudimentary Architecture: For the Use of Beginners, and Students; The Orders, and Their Aesthetic Principles As prefaces are very seldom read, the above escapade will probably escape all but those who will be far too discreet to take any notice of 1t. And as prefaces are usually ignored, it is chiefly for form sake here stated, that excepting the additional chapters on Supercolumniation, and Anthropom orphie Pillars, this edition is nearly a reprint of the first one.
