Excerpt from Traditions and Customs of Cathedrals
III. Partly modern and practical, as indi cating the various uses which have grown up, alongside with material restoration, in the cele bration of Divine Service, when evidences Of new life and unbroken vitality are rife on every side. Changes in the structure and furniture and services have been supplemented by the dying out of traditional lore; and designs are on foot to remodel their constitution: so that, on either ground, I hope to interest both the curious antiquary in matters Of ritual, and the conscientious reformer in points Of detail.

The three beautiful 'Sisters of the Vale' - the spires of Lichfield - so beautiful that old Fuller suggests that they should only be shown on great festivals; the glorious towers of Lincoln, on its sovereign hill, the delight of Southey and Wordsworth; the majestic pile of York, perhaps the most admired in modern times, although Lord Burlington could not award his preference; the massive grandeur of Durham, immortalised by Scott and Johnson; the grace of Salisbury; the unequalled front of Wells; the triple porches or gallery of Peterborough; the soaring angel steeple of Canterbury, and its more than rival at Gloucester, if lost would be irreparable.
