There was the Ionic Temple of Diana at Ephesus ; there was the most mem- orable Doric structure, the Parthenon, whose colossal gran- deur in white marble crowned the renowned Acropolis at Athens... : a piece of human workmanship, which has been called " the glory of Greece and the shame of the rest of the world, " these, together with other products of her accomplished GEORGE A. PHINNEY. 125 sculptors, held in high regard, teach us lessons worthy of re- membrance for our cities, namely, that to cherish places in which are vested historic associations is our solemn duty.
