Text Appearing Before Image:
for which the substructure was neverintended, and which has sorely tried the fabric. Purbeckmarble is lavishly employed, almost too lavishly,—its usealmost amounts to an abuse. The dark marble shafts ofthe triforium do not show well against the dark back-ground, and in the Lady Chapel the rigidity of thematerial is exhibited almost painfully in the extremeattenuation of the columns that carry the vaults.The Lady The chapel is four bays in length, and is divided into c ape a nave with narrow aisles. The two easternmost pairof columns are of Purbeck marble about 11 inches indiameter. The westernmost pair consist each of fivedetached Purbeck shafts only 5J inches in diameter,standing on a common base, rising to a great heightand jointed halfway up, where they are united by abronze socketted band. Their stability rests on theaccuracy of their setting, for the least movement outof the upright, by bringing the load on one edge of theshaft, would mean ruin. They stand, however, perfectly.
