may_v observe_v in_o their_o work_n that_o they_o be_v so_o diligent_a in_o join_v their_o stone_n together_o that_o in_o many_o place_n their_o connexion_n can_v scarce_o be_v perceive_v and_o beside_o the_o beauty_n firmness_n and_o duration_n of_o the_o fabric_n be_v very_o much_o to_o be_v regard_v and_o for_o as_o much_o as_o i_o can_v understand_v they_o first_o square_v and_o wrought_v the_o side_n of_o the_o stone_n which_o be_v to_o be_v place_v one_o upon_o the_o other_o leave_v the_o other_o side_n rough_a and_o so_o use_v they_o whereupon_o the_o edge_n of_o the_o

square_v on_o all_o side_n before_o for_o when_o the_o edge_n be_v make_v square_a or_o less_o than_o square_a they_o be_v very_o weak_a and_o subject_a to_o accident_n in_o this_o manner_n they_o make_v all_o building_n rough_a or_o as_o one_o may_v say_v rustic_a and_o that_o be_v do_v they_o go_v on_o work_v and_o polish_n the_o face_n of_o the_o stone_n which_o be_v to_o be_v see_v it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o rose_n which_o be_v between_o the_o modilion_n and_o other_o such_o like_a ornament_n of_o the_o cornich_n can_v not_o commodious_o be_v do_v when_o the_o stone_n be_v fix_v therefore_o they_o make_v they_o while_o they_o be_v on_o the_o ground_n this_o be_v well_o attest_v by_o many_o ancient_a building_n where_o may_v be_v see_v many_o stone_n rough_a and_o unpolished_a the_o arch_n by_o the_o old_a castle_n in_o verona_n and_o all_o other_o the_o arch_n and_o building_n there_o be_v do_v in_o the_o same_o manner_n which_o be_v easy_o make_v out_o by_o one_o curious_a in_o observe_v the_o mark_n of_o their_o tool_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o manner_n how_o the_o stone_n be_v wrought_v the_o pillar_n of_o trajan_n and_o antonine_n in_o rome_n be_v so_o

the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o other_o arch_n which_o be_v there_o and_o if_o the_o work_n be_v very_o great_a as_o the_o arena_n of_o verona_n the_o amphitheatre_n of_o pola_n and_o the_o like_a to_o save_v charge_n and_o time_n which_o they_o will_v have_v require_v they_o wrought_v only_o the_o impost_n of_o the_o arch_n capitell_n and_o the_o cornice_n and_o the_o rest_n they_o
