Were I to attempt to say anything about the buildings of a later date, it would be impossible to do more than give a catalogue, which would be as unintelligible as it would be tedious. I will only say, therefore, on this head, that Clermont cathedral well deserves careful study, and is rich in very fine glass; that at Montferrand may be seen as large a collection of mediaeval houses of all dates as in almost any small town that I know; that Riom possesses a fine S. Chapelle; and that in the abbey of La Chaise-Dieu is still preserved a very rare and complete series of tapestries of the sixteenth century. Besides these, a large number of articles of church-plate are to be found scattered up and down in the village churches, and all this goodly store of antiquities is set before you in a province whose physical features are so full of interest and beauty as in themselves to make a journey through Velay and Auvergne one which none will repent having undertaken.

Mary’s, Stone_ II. _Churches in Northern Germany_ I. _Lübeck_ II. _Naumburg_ III. _Erfurt and Marburg_ IV. _Münster and Soest_ V. _German Pointed Architecture_ I SOME ACCOUNT OF THE CHURCH OF S. MARY, STONE, NEAR DARTFORD (_From the papers of the Kent Archæological Society, in Archæologia Cantiana, 1860_) Having given these preliminary notes, illustrative of the history of the church, it will be well now to give a detailed architectural description of the fabric, illustrated, as far as may be, by the discoveries which have been made in the course of its restoration.[66]
