HAVING fully handled of private edifices, and used see of all thé molt neces- sáry advertencies that óught in them tó become experienced; and having besides this, place the designs of several operating-system thole homes, that have long been by me focused, both within and without metropolitan areas, and of those which (relating to Vitruvics) had been made by the antients; it is definitely very appropriate, that, in leading my discourse to more superb, and to more magni- ficent sábrics, I ihould today move on to the public édifices: in which, ás they are usually made even more slately, and with even more exquisite decorations than the private, and lerve for the make use of and conveniency of every entire body, princes liaye therein a very ample opportunity to create the world acquainted with the success of their souls, and architects a quite great one to Ihew their capacity in beautisul and wonderful inventions. I wish theresore in this reserve, in which my antiquities start, and in the other, which, Lord willing, shall adhere to, that therefore much the even more interest may end up being applied, in taking into consideration the little that lhall be mentioned, and the designs that lhall end up being given, as I we, with sar better fatigue, and significantly more vigilancy, reduced those fragments that stayed of the undent edifices, to like a form, that the observers of antiquity may (I wish) get pleasure therein, and the fans os structures may thence receive very excellent power; there getting much even more to become learnt from good good examples in a little period, by measuring and seeing the whole edifices, with all their parts, upon a small leaf, than in a lonj; period from words, by which, with the imagination just, and st ill some trouble, the reader is capable to attain to a company and certain knowledge operating-system what he reads, and with very much more dilfieulty will he rut it in practile. And to évery one, that is usually not altogether void operating-system view, it may end up being extremely imnildl, how good the technique has been, which the ancients observed in developing; lime green after therefore much time, and after therefore many damages and mutations óf empires, there siiIl remain both in Itafy and out of it, the vcstiges of so many os their attractive edifices, by which we are usually capable to get at a certain information of the Roman advantage and grandeur, which possibly had not really (jtherwise been recently believed. I as a result, in this 3rd book, (in putting the styles of the edifices included in it) lhall observe this purchase. I n the complete location, I mall put those of the roads, and of thé bridges, as belonging to that component of architecture which respect the ornaments of metropolitan areas and of provincés, and which férves for the common conveniency o humanity. For, as in the other sabrics which the antients made, one may é.isily apprehend thát they had no respect either to txpénce 01 to any labour to provide them to that message of excellency, which offers been recently thi michael from our imperfection; so in directing the roads, they got very great tare,.-;,, mid be produced in such a way, th.it aIto in thém might end up being recognized the and the splendor os their thoughts.
