Hoc tabernaculo aliquoties usus fui pro expositione quadraginta horarum. Si colores scitè inducti fuerint in duos ordines telariorum, resectis omnibus quæ ad molem ipsam non pertinent, spectatoribus imponet, & solida videbitur. Oportebit autem exemplar externæ faciei eruere ex parte DF vestigii & elevationis; exemplar interioris faciei eruere ex parte EC, servando in omnibus regulas quas hucusque tradidimus.
The SIXTIETH FIGURE.
An Octangular Tabernacle in Perspective.
I have sometimes made use of this Tabernacle for the Exposition of the Forty Hours. If the Colours are laid by a skilful Hand, on two Ranges of Cloth, and the Frame cut away according to the Out-line of the Work, they will wonderfully deceive the Eye, and appear as solid; but then the outer Range must be drawn after the Plan and Elevation of the Part DF in the foregoing Figure; and the inner Range after that of EC; in all things observing the Rules hitherto deliver’d.
