5. A woman in excessively rich costume, with braided hair
and sharp multitudinously folded dress, covered with
beads or pearls; holding a (rosary?) in left hand,

6. The figure whose head is sketched at p 33 1 I can’t
understand the folded ornament projecting fromcap.
7. A lady with crown, strangely set with bunch on
bruch shaped ornaments and with the beautiful

Very heavy and bad. No inscriptions to this 15th capital
The 116 h. A most puzzling capital. It has heads, of
most various workmanship, half of it has been split by
the iron, and ill re-adjusted - and the gap[s] filled with
cement, which is rudely moulded into a continuation of
the figures, in lines of hair, etc What is most strange,
the workmanship of the detached half in the front
