The Explication Of the Fourth Table

This Table contains the Plan and perspective Elevation of a Temple, called Hexastyle and Pseudodyptere, viz. Which has six Columns in the Faces, before and behind, and which has simple Portico’s, but which are as large as the two Portico’s of the Temples which have them double. This Plan and this Elevation may serve for other Temples, which as to what concerns the essential parts explained in the precedent Table, are like to this here, as are the Periptere, the Diptere, and the Hypethre, which only differ in the number of Columns, or such-like circumstances.
