Objections

It is fit for a prison: therefore not
for a Lazaretto. The aspect appearance of a Lazaretto
ought as Howard observes to be
cheerful. True so ought every abode
except a prison, as much as may be.
But what should hinder this from being so?
What should make it less so than another?
is not the Circus at Bath a round of
building? Are not the two crescents there
so many portions of a circle? Is there any
thing particularly gloomy in the Polygon at
Southampton or was it to designed to be so?
Was Ranelagh near London, was the Rotundo
at Dublin designed for punishment or
pleasure? Is there any thing in a round
of polygonal building that should render it
incapable of being set down in the vicinity of
parterres, gravel-walks, bowling-greens, pater basons,
fountains, cascades,
groves and shrubberies? or with view of
rivers, lakes, woods, hills, rocks, cataracts and mountains?
