[164] Casa Tiepolo (?) in Lazari’s Guide.

[165] I do not think that there is anything more necessary to the progress of European art in the present day than the complete understanding of this sanctity of Color. I had much pleasure in finding it, the other day, fully understood and thus sweetly expressed in a little volume of poems by a Miss Maynard:

“For still in every land, though to Thy name Arose no temple,—still in every age, Though heedless man had quite forgot Thy praise, We praised Thee; and at rise and set of sun Did we assemble duly, and intone A choral hymn that all the lands might hear. In heaven, on earth, and in the deep we praised Thee, Singly, or mingled in sweet sisterhood. But now, acknowledged ministrants, we come, Co-worshippers with man in this Thy house, We, the Seven Daughters of the Light, to praise Thee, Light of Light! Thee, God of very God!” A Dream of Fair Colors.

These poems seem to be otherwise remarkable for a very unobtrusive and pure religious feeling in subjects connected with art.

Transcriber's Note: This is the second volume of three.
The index is in Volume III, with links to all three volumes; and some footnotes are linked between volumes.
These links are designed to work when the book is read on line. However, if you want to download all three volumes and have the links work on your own computer, then follow these directions carefully.
1. Create a directory (folder) named whatever you like (e.g., StonesVenice). (The name of this directory (folder) is not critical, but the inner folders must be named as listed below, or the links between volumes will not work).
2. In that directory (folder) create 3 directories (folders) named 30754 30755 30756 3. Create the following directories (folders): In the 30754 directory create a directory named 30754-h In the 30755 directory create a directory named 30755-h In the 30756 directory create a directory named 30756-h 4. Download the zipped html version of each volume. Download Vol. I from [http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/30754] Download Vol. II from [http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/30755] Download Vol. III from [http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/30756] 5. Unzip the downloaded files. There are TWO html files in each zipped html folder. The …-h.htm file should be used if you wish to use a downloaded file off-line which will link to all the other files which are still on-line. The …-h2.htm file will be used only if you wish to install all three volumes on your own computer. 6. Move the files into the appropriate directories: Move the unzipped 30754-h2.htm file and its "images" directory into your 30754-h directory. Move the unzipped 30755-h2.htm file and its "images" directory into your 30755-h directory. Move the unzipped 30756-h2.htm file and its "images" directory into your 30756-h directory. 7. Re-name the htm files you just moved. Change the name of 30754-h2.htm to 30754-h.htm. Change the name of 30755-h2.htm to 30755-h.htm. Change the name of 30756-h2.htm to 30756-h.htm. 8. The files are now ready to use. Open any one with your browser and you will be able to move to either of the other volumes with a click of the mouse.
