                             PREHISTORIC ARCHITECTURE
  "Study mere shelter, now for him, and him ;
Nay, even the worst-just house them ! Any cave Suffices; throw out earth! A loop hole ? Brave !
... But here's our son excels At hurdle weaving any Scythian ; fells Oak and devises rafters; dreams and shapes His dream into a door post, just escapes The mystery of hinges....
The goodly growth Of brick and stone! Our building-pelt was rough, But that descendants' garb suits well enough A portico-contriver.
The work marched : step by step-a workman fit Took each, nor too fit-to one task, one time No leaping o'er the petty to the prime, When just the substituting osier lithe For brittle bulrush, sound wood for soft withe, To further loam-and-rough-cast work a stage, Exacts an architect, exacts an age."--BROWNING.
