Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Companion to St. Paul's Cathedral: Containing Description of the Various Objects Worthy Attention, and Its History: To Which Is Added a Brief Historical Sketch of the Ancient Church, Carefully Compiled From the Writings of Dugdale, Stowe, Malcolm, and Others

Courteous Reader, the Compiler does not profess to give a copious detail of architecture, or of its principles; his chief object is to present a faithful account of St. Paul's Cathe dral in the cheapest possible form, so as to be within the reach of, and suitable to all classes of society.

Painful as it is to his feelings, he cannot forbear noticing in this place how grievous it is, that so many persons are in the constant habit, (either from ignorance or love of wan ton mischief,) of defacing the monuments by scribbling their names or some idle nonsense upon them. To prevent this disgusting and discreditable practice, the Dean and Chapter have issued peremptory orders to each officer of the Church, to take into custody all persons com mitting this or any other nuisance.
