The moulding of the base. B. Elevation and plan of the crown, or weather moulding. This plate elucidates the 4th primary, and the 2d and 3d secondary principles. III. The peculiar forms and combinations of mouldings. VSome are composed of conjoined ovolo's, meeting in an angle, or small band ; others by undulating lines, whose plans give the forms of the pointed arch, used in tombs, &e. Fillets, or bands, so situated as to present to the eye acute angles. In the Grecian, or Roman mouldings, the... fillets are always perpendicular; in the pointed seldom so; with deep under-cut hollows, &c. The effect of these forms is peculiarly striking, from the dark shadows thrown ; and, however minute or trifling these distinctions may appear, no imitations can be correct, without paying the utmost attention to the peculiarities forming the basis of this principle. See Plates 6, 1J. PLATE 6th. 1. The impost mouldings extending through the Church. A. A moulding formed of an ovolo and an undulating line, meeting in the centre in an angle.
