time grandeur OF Rome, that may still be
seen. The Pantheon, erected in the year 2I
b. c., is the only entire structure that remains,
and this deserves at least passing notice.
1t is circular in form, of g igantic proportions,
covered by one vast dome, and has a portico
IN front of sixteen Corinthian columns 40 feet
in height. 1t has long been used as church
called St. Maria Rotundo. The only light OF
the interior, is admitted from circular OPEN

scriptions that have been taken hence, and
preserved in some of the museums. One cam
not fail to notice that these in their simplicity
are rebuke to the ostentatious Bretences Of
the present church. So far as L could discoy-
er, they picture no regal prelates, no mitered
priests, no bowling down before the figures of
saints, no madonnas,-no dread for the past.
no fears for The future. But some simple de-
vice rudely wrought, in many cases expresses
the faith of relatives left behnd-such as:
A dove with an olive branch;i
A shepherd follow red by sheep;
The anchor (of hope);
The trailing vine; (' am the yne," &c.)
boat crossing a river;
The palm branch-expressive oftriumph, &C., &c.
Sometimes there is an accompanying mot.
to-such as:
Gone to his or her reSt; Gone In peace; Passed
away;-in by far the most numerous cases. the SIM
pie words " In peace.''
But enough for the present.
