[M.176L] [M.176] No 1246 San Stefano. Church of 176 San Stefano. Continued from p 166 l. seen on a level with it end on. like a ship’s bows. (I see I am wrong in saying the triangle is horizontal; it is evidently raised a little above the bell as it sweeps down) and then the bell itself is cut into a deeper concave: giving relief to all the leaves upon it: Blocks being left originally for the curled lobes which spoil it, and mark the transition period. The section through the side is given most carefully - every line measured real size; on No 1246 wherein note especially the receding slope of the base of the dog tooth, -thadvancing slope of the edge of the bell; precisely what I have called transitional Ap; and finally the dotted line marking the original contour of the bell, while the inner line is the actual concave cut to leave the leafage projecting.
