“Quivil first transformed the Lady-Chapel; to him are due the shafts, sedilia, double piscina, and the vaulting, the rib-mouldings of which are of earlier character than those of the choir; and the windows, which closely resemble those of Merton College, Oxford, which we know was commenced in 1277. In the centre of the Lady-Chapel Bishop Quivil is buried; he died in 1291. The chapels on either side may have been remodelled or partly remodelled by Bronescombe; but the east windows are later in style, and are Quivil’s. The piers hereabout are very interesting. Those of the Lady-Chapel looking into the side chapels are composed of four columns. The north-east and south-east piers of the choir have clusters of eight shafts instead of four; while in the pier between them the cluster of eight is developed into a cluster of sixteen columns. Finally notice that these piers are set diamond-wise, with four flat faces, and the angles to the north, west, south and east.”--(F. B.) In the centre of the pavement is the tombstone of =Bishop Peter Quivil= (died 1291), author of the present plan of the cathedral. Other effigies of bishops are interesting works of art, but those of =Sir John= and =Lady Doddridge= are very curious. Sir John (died 1628), one of James I’s judges of the King’s Bench, was called “the sleepy judge,” because he always sat on the bench with closed eyes; but more interesting is Lady Doddridge, who wears a rich dress brocaded with roses and carnations and also a remarkable ruff and headdress. Under the arches opening from the Lady-Chapel to the side chapels are tombs of =Bishops Bronescomb= and =Stafford=. Bishop Bronescomb’s effigy (1280), on the south side, is a fine piece of carving. Stafford’s opposite (1419) is of alabaster, and it is famous for the rich tabernacle-work above the head. We have been long attracted by the lovely =East window=. Now we can see the details.
