What we have already said in speaking of the Italian style, respecting the facility with which additions may be made to irregular houses, applies with equal, or even greater force, to the varieties of the Gothic style, just described. From the very fact that the highest beauty of these modes of building arises from their irregularity (opposed to Grecian architecture, which, in its chaste simplicity, should be regular), it is evident that additions judiciously made will tend to increase this beauty, or afford more facility for its display; while it is equally evident that in the interior arrangement, including apartments of every description, superior opportunities are afforded for attaining internal comfort and convenience, as well as external effect.
