To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The gallery over the principal altar of a semi-circular form, is obtained from the thickness of the wall, and supported by pillars of yellow marble. On every side are chapels adorned also with columns of yellow marble, and with pilasters crowned with an entablature of white marble, which extends round the building. The walls and the pavement are cased with marble. The whole presents us with an assemblage of rare beauty ; and we cannot but regret the loss of its statues and some of its other ori...ginal ornaments, which would still im- prove the magnificence of its effect.
The bronze ornaments of the dome were removed in the ponti- ficate of Urban VIII. for the purpose of forming the canopy of the great altar in St. Peter's. We know that the bronze gates, ornamented with bass relief, were taken away by Genseric, king of the Vandals, and were lost in the sea of Sicily.
K PANTHEON.
ivE temple, le plus célèbre qui soit parvenu jusqu' à nous sans avoir souffert des injures du temps, nous donne l'idée la plus complette de la niai>nificence des anciens Romains.
