By the curious in architecture, the faithful representation of the bridges, and the plain description of the manner in which they are constructed, will be valued; while, to the observer of the human mind, and the speculator upon the progress of improvement in India, it must be an object of interest to mark the modes of thought and feeling entertained by a Hindu, who, in strict accordance with the precepts of his religion, undertakes a great public work, which would do honour to the professor of any religion, and to the citizen of any country, in any age.","PeriodicalId":440719,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of The Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1833-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125461677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By a reference to my remarks on the subject of the stone,* it will be seen that 1 was then struck at the apparent deviation in the particular formulary expression which I took it to be. In decyphering the stone, I had not only to contend with the disadvantageous light in which it was placed; but the ground and letters being of the same uniform colour, and the writing in such low-relief as scarcely to be obvious to the touch, the difficulty of tracing it out may be easily imagined. The practised eye of the artist, however, who, besides the choice of light, had only to trace the forms of the letters without attending to the sense, succeeded in discovering and delineating that which my less perfect vision was unable to distinguish.","PeriodicalId":440719,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of The Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1833-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128526480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
