                                                                      			SAN GIOV e PAOLO TRACERIES  PIAZETTA DE LEONI
                                                                      put below, p p which is that of p, p in A, accurately:
                                                                      The bevel x y of one, as the stone is of same thick-
                                                                      ness, becomes x y of the other.
                                                                      B. is filled with stone in angles?
                                                                      A. is certainly accurate taking the p p section its
                                                                      4 foil and trefoil both careful and note the trefoil

                                                                      and pierced filleted cusp sharp:  Their relation is about
                                                                      thus                             the 4 foil truncation
                                                                       twice as                        wide as trefoil.
                                                                      In the sketch I have not enough shown the vertical

                                                                      At fig C is given the archivolt and its section.
