Transcriber’s Note:

Minor errors and omissions in punctuation, hyphenation, and capitalization have been fixed.

Illustrations have been moved to avoid breaking paragraphs, so it may be necessary to scroll up or down to find their locations.

Some words with potential alternative spellings were left as in the text, including jowlopped, marygold, spandrils, Poictiers, applique, and gouttee.
