Violet le Duc's dictionary, you know that one greatcondition of the perfect Gothic structure is that the stones shall be'en de-lit, ' set up on end. The ornament then, which on the reposing orcouchant stone was current only, on the erected stone begins to climbalso, and becomes, in the most heraldic sense of the term, rampant. In the heraldic sense, I say, as distinguished from the still wideroriginal sense of advancing with a stealthy, creeping, or clingingmotion, as a serpent on the ground, a...nd a cat, or a vine, up a tree-stem. And there is one of these reptile, creeping, or rampant things, which is the first whose action was translated into marble, andotherwise is of boundless importance in the arts and labours of man. 170. You recollect Kingsley's expression, --now hackneyed, becauseadmired for its precision, --the '_crawling foam_, ' of waves advancingon sand. Tennyson has somewhere also used, with equal truth, theepithet 'climbing' of the spray of breakers against vertical rock.
