'' Many bodies of the saints lie around, those of greatest importance occupying the corners of the edifice, here, as in all Oriental buildings, the place of honour. High in the central of the five domes is the little chapel of the Praise of the Mother of God, where the Russian patriarchs were elected ' near the grace-communicating tombs of the great wonder-workers, ' as was stated in their proclamation. On the left of the iconastos, in a narrow chapel, is the tomb of S. Peter, the first Metropo...litan, and the founder of the church ; and hard by hangs a picture of the Repose of the Virgin, which he is said to have painted. ' The Metropolitan S. Peter foresaw the future glory of Moscow while it was as yet poor, and persuaded Ivan to lay in it the foundation of the stone Cathedral of the Assumption. " If thou wilt comfort my CATHEDRAL OF THE ASSUMPTION. 227 old age, " said he, "if thou wilt build here a temple worthy of the Mother of God, then thou shalt be more glorious than all the other princes, and thy posterity shall become great.
