and its early Architecture, now passed away, was of a highly
picturesque character.

posterity all that is valuable of the Ancient appearance of his
native town. For this purpose, many early and authentic
collections have been laid open to him, which will be duly
acknowledged in the work.

the Author wishes it to be understood that the Plates are the
principal objects.

first number, which will contain Five. The whole to be
completed in Twelve Numbers.
