The plain(155-2) is cut simply across leaving a flat face diagonallyplaced as regards the original faces of the stone or hollowed (155-3) it is gouged out with a gouge so as toform a curved channel cut into the edge.

The swelled chamfer (155-5) is formed by-cutting in at right angles at first as in the last example,but rounding off the chamfer. The ogee (155-6) is a com-pound of the hollow and the swelled, first starting as ahollow on one side and then swelhng out on the other,producing an S form on plan. This curve of double flexure,partly concave and partly convex, is termed the ogee,and came into use about 1315. The bracket (155-7)consists of two wavy mouldings side by side, the one beingreversed, a
