parts take thereof the half of one fourteenth part for the largeness and the other half for the Projecture The Projecture of the remainder shall be made as it is noted in the Ichnographia of the body above the great Capital The diminishing of the body of the Column noted K shall be of the one part and of the other of a fourteenth part as it is said before of the Tuscan to the end that the height of the body may have twelve parts in thickness The height of the Capital noted L is the half of the body below divide it into three parts one for the Neck the other for the Boultin the third part again divide into three two for the square the third part of the Square is the Cimatum The Projecture of the Capital noted M shall be such as every part project into a Square over the Capital The Architrave is placed noted N which hath half the thickness of the Column the seventh part thereof is the Tenia and hath as much Projecture as the body of the Diminishing and place it as it appeareth in this Figure The Friese followeth noted O the height thereof on the left side is of three such parts as two of the Architrave the third part of the Friese divide into three one shall be the Fillet over the Trigliph which is made after this manner Its height from the Architrave unto the Fillet above divide into three parts whereof two shall be the breadth of the Friese and three the height From one Trigliph unto the other shall be a perfect Square in the which spaces noted P when for the greater Ornament one desireth to enrich them they may carve therein the heads of Beasts with Plates or Dishes named by Vitruvius Methopes and not without signification for the Antients purposing to make a Sacrifice of Bulls used also Plates or Dishes and placed such things for enrichment about their Temples Under the Trigliph are hanging six drops noted Q the which shall have in bigness the sixth part of the height of the Architrave the Fillet on which they hang is the fourth part of the Drops Above the Friese on the left side is placed the Cornish noted R which is of the same height with the Architrave The Cornish shall be divided into two parts whereof the first is to be divided into four one for the Cimatum two for the Corona the rest for the little Cima which is placed above The second part divided into seven is the O. G. which is set upon the Cornish and one seventh part joyned thereto shall be the Fillet upon the O. G. its Projecture must be square But the Projecture of the Cornish above the Cima is made in this manner the Architrave divide into three parts two shall be the Projecture of the Crown The right side noted S is made in this manner Divide the Architrave in three parts four such parts shall make the height of the Friese and the same height shall also be the Cornish The tenth part of the Friese shall be the Fillet above the Trigliph But you shall divide the Trigliph as it is said before in the Trigliph of the other side noted O. This Cornish divide into nine parts whereof two shall be for the two Facias one part shall be allowed for the Thorus or Boultin two to the Modelians two to the Crown two to the Cima The Modellions divide into three one part shall be for the O. G. which is upon the Modillions and the Projector is made also in such manner The two parts below which are allowed for the Facias divide into six parts two for the lower Fascia three for the upper Fascia the rest for the Fillet under the Boultin The Modillions noted T are made in this manner the Boultin to begin from the middle unto the end on the right side divide into six parts one for the half Modillion three between two and two for the Cartridges entire three for the Projecture all the other parts project in a Square But if you will flute the Column you shall make twenty four F●utes noted V and you shall hollow them in the manner which you see in the Ichnography or Plat-form over the great Capital enriched accompanied with its Base marked G G and as it appeareth also in the body of the Column noted V. It is that from the Flutes or one side to the other of the space of the fluting there shall be drawn a right line the which shall be the side of a Square and the said Quadrant or Square finished shall be set in the Center thereof noted I the Centrick foot of a Compass and with the other point shall be touched the one and the other Angle noted 2 and 3 and bringing it about they shall make its just hollowing the which shall make the fourth part of a Circle as it is demonstrated in the above-said Ichnography or Plat-form For the fluting which are made with an outstanding ridge but the Flutes of the Columns which are accompanied with a Plate-band or Fillet called by Vitruvius Strix about the end of the third Chapter of his fourth Book shall be the said Strix divided into five parts whereof four shall be allowed for the said Flute and the fifth for the Fillet or Plate-band according to that which shall be more fully declared in the Treatise of the Ionick Order in the Ichnography of the great Capital enriched noted N and its Ichnography noted S. But if one would make a delicate Column seem to be gross and material it will be needful to make 28 Flutes The Dimension made as is above said the Column will have its true Symmetry and Proportion as it appeareth in the Figure hereafter To make the Practice and use of the Members of the said Column here above particularized more easie to the Reader and Workman that is curious exactly to observe the Measures and Proportions which ought to be kept he shall find hereafter in a great Proportion a Pedestal noted in the middle with Y And in the other part of the leaf on the other side of the said Pedestal a Basis and Capital of proportion agreeable to the greatness of the said Pedestal noted Z. Above the which Capital is the half of the Ichnography or plain of the same from the which the Workman may be able to draw as much benefit as if it were compleated the which could not be made in respect of the bigness of the Plate upon the which the said Base and Capital are engraven There follows in two other pages two sorts of Architrave Friese and Cornish likewise in a great proportion adorned with enrichments necessary according to the Antiquity of the Dorick Order whereof one of the said Portratures containing the Architrave Friese and Cornish is noted in the said Friese in the midst A A where one may see designed in small all the Ornaments of the said Friese and the other over against it noted B B
