a Roman Work and Temple. I I

especially, I have caused to be copied out Mr. Camden’s Pourtraict)whether the perpendicular Stones countersigned with C, D, E, F,do not manifest what I say to be true.

Besides, the Stone marked G, is indisputably a Fragment of oneof the Stones of the inner, or second Circle lying along; and thatE denotes one of the Stones of the greater Hexagon, and F oneof the lesser, cannot be gainsaid: Furthermore, the Stones //> be-long not unto any of the Courses of the main Structure; for, asthe Pylasters which support the Architraves B, terminate the out-ward Circle towards the North-East ; so K (wholly omitted by thisDoctor, to blind the Perpendicular D, lest you of your self shouldfind out the true Station of it) concludes it on the North-West:whereby it is evident, “ that the Ranks or Courses in which all the" Stones were erected, are not only three, one within another,”as he, purposely,’ to make Mr. Camden contradict himself, hath un-faithfully paraphrased it; but of this we shall have more to fay c’relong. In the mean time, most certain it is, that our Antiquity itself (which neither for Mr. Camden nor Mr. Jones can err) de-monstrates the Ruins of four Ranks of Stones to be, even atthis present Day, standing upright therein. Mr. Jones then hathfaithfully performed his Duty, both towards you and Posterity, inconfidently avouching , that he found the Courses to be four; andMr. Camden , by having expressed in his Draught a View of as manyRanks, one within another, hath not been at open Variance withMr. Jones. However, the Doctor might have spared this Part ofhis Reflection; for being there are four Courses, there must bethree. And if Mr. “Jones found out more than Mr. Camden ex-plained, his Diligence was the greater, and the more Thanks After-

Ages will give him, for making a more perfect - Discovery. Mr.Camden’% Draught follows.
