Fig. 81. Catskill MountainHouse. Fig. 82. Grecian Fig. S3. Reman HARMONY OF ANALOGY. 33 taken from Ruskins Stones of Venice, has an analogical har-mony in the great general outline of its beautiful Roman arches,although every arch, as will be seen, has an entirely differentstyle of ornamentation from every other arch, and each pillardifferently sculptured capitals, while the space above is filledwith constantly diversified figures.
