The =Lady-Chapel= (Thirteenth Century and Early English) is sometimes called the Dormitory, because many canons are buried here. Characteristic curling foliage decorates the capitals. The shafts are filleted. Traces of colouring can be observed here and there and also figures of angels on the roof. The Decorated window (restored) at the east end contains glass designed by Burne-Jones and made by William Morris, a memorial to Frederick Vyner, murdered by brigands at Marathon in 1870. The figures represent Samuel the Prophet, David, King of Israel, John the Evangelist, and Timothy the Bishop. In the panels beneath are, Eli instructing the young Samuel, David slaying Goliath, St. John at the Last Supper, and Timothy as a little boy learning from his mother. Here also is the tomb of =Elizabeth Lady Montacute=, who gave Christ Church Meadow to the Priory for the support of two priests for her chantry in this Lady-Chapel. Her effigy lies on the top of the tomb, and portraits of her children appear in the panels below. The whole was originally brilliantly coloured. Four arches divide the Lady-Chapel. Under the easternmost one is a large tomb known as the =Watching Chamber=. “Its real nature is still a matter of dispute: some maintaining it to have been used as a chantry chapel for the welfare of those who were buried below; others, that it served as a ‘watching chamber’ to protect the gold and jewels which hung about the shrine of St. Frideswide. “Most elaborately carved and crocketed, the ‘watching chamber’ is a beautiful example of full-blown Perpendicular workmanship; ‘most lovely English work, both of heart and hand,’ according to Mr. Ruskin. It consists of four stories, the two lower, in stone, forming an altar tomb and canopy, and the two upper in wood. A door from the Latin Chapel leads one up a small and well-worn stone staircase into the interior of the little upper chapel, which is now a rough wooden room. Its extreme roughness suggests that it was once panelled and otherwise adorned, while there are marks at its east end, which may be the site of an altar, or of the _feretrum_ itself.”--(P. D.) Lastly we come to the =Latin-Chapel= also called =St. Catherine’s=, in honour of the patron of students of theology. “The Decorated vaulting was built when the chapel was enlarged in the Fourteenth Century. The foliage of its bosses is very beautiful; the water-lilies especially of the third boss, so suggestive of Oxford streams, and the roses a little further east, are a happy combination of naturalistic treatment with decorative restraint. It will be noticed that the vaulting does not run true in the third bay, the Decorated work there having been somewhat awkwardly joined to the Early English of the second bay.
