Canon Bowles (1850); Bishop Burgess (1837); Bishop Seth Ward (1689), Hooker, the famous divine; Young, the father of the poet; Isaak Walton, the son of the angler; Bishop Davenant (1641); Mrs. Wordsworth, the wife of the bishop; and a brass to Canon Liddon's memory. Further on are the monuments of Bishop Salcot (1557), and Sir Richard Mompesson and his wife (1627). Notice the inverted strengthening arches in both choir transepts. Passing through the south transept we enter the _Cloisters_, which are considered to be "among the finest in England," and without doubt they can lay claim to be a great and beautiful architectural triumph. They are a little later than the Cathedral, having been begun directly after its completion, and finished during the rule of Bishop Wyvill, about 1340. The windows are finely constructed, and consist of double-arched openings, each arch having two sub-arches, while in the head is a large six-foiled opening. On the wall side is a blind arcade of graceful arches. An unfortunate restoration in 1854 did not improve the appearance of the cloisters. On the north side, between the cloister and the church, is the plumbery. The monuments here do not possess much interest. The _Library_, over part of the east walk, was built by Bishop Jewell, and contains about 5000 volumes, and a valuable collection of MSS. One of the most interesting is a Gallican version of the Psalter (969 A.D.), Geoffrey of Monmouth's Chronicles (twelfth century), a copy of Magna Charter (now in muniment room), and many others of much value and importance. The _Chapter-House_ was built early in the reign of Edward I. It is a noble octagonal building, and can scarcely be surpassed by any other. The roof is modern. There is a central pillar, from which the vaulting springs. On each side there is a large window, resembling in tracery those in the cloisters. Below the windows is an arcade, and beneath this a stone bench, and at the east end a raised seat for the bishop and his officials. There is a remarkable series of sculptures above the arcade, which are extremely interesting and merit close study. The following are the subjects represented:-- WEST BAY 1. Description of Chaos. 2. Creation of the Firmament. NORTH-WEST BAY 3. Creation of the Earth. 4. Creation of the Sun and Moon. 5. Creation of the Birds and Fishes. 6. Creation of Adam and Eve. 7. The Sabbath. 8. The Institution of Marriage. 9. The Temptation. 10. The Hiding in the Garden. NORTH BAY 11. The Expulsion. 12. Adam tilling the Ground. 13. Cain and Abel's Offering. 14. Murder of Abel. 15. God sentencing Cain. 16. God commanding Noah to build the Ark. 17. The Ark. 18. Noah's Vineyard. NORTH-EAST BAY
