104385 XI. But it will be said that all this want of organisation and form might be affirmed of drapery also, and that this latter is a noble subject of sculpture. XI 然而我们却可以说这种缺乏组织和形状也会出现在衣纹中，而后者却是雕塑的一个高尚的主题。
104386 XI. For that period, then, we must build; not, indeed, refusing to ourselves the delight of present completion, nor hesitating to follow such portions of character as may depend upon delicacy of execution to the highest perfection of which they are capable, even although we may know that in the course of years such details must perish; but taking care that for work of this kind we sacrifice no enduring quality, and that the building shall not depend for its impressiveness upon anything that is perishable. XI 我们必须使得建筑那么长命；我们并不真的拒绝完成建筑时的快乐，对依靠精细的做工而达到完美的那部分特性的追求也毫不犹豫，尽管我们也许知道随着岁月的流逝，这些细节将会湮灭。我们小心谨慎，不因为这类建筑而牺牲永久特性，不让建筑的壮观依赖于易腐之物。

XI 这个如此确定的界限是不容置疑的。在一切事物当中，我们在走向合法的边缘时，最好谨慎一些，这样尽管在这个界限之内使用金属不会被看成对建筑本身及其性质造成了破坏，不过倘若过度而频繁使用，将不仅降低其诚实（这正是我们当前讨论的内容），而且会削弱其尊贵。

104393 XII. And, in order to avoid an over use of this liberty, it would be well to consider what application may be conveniently made of the dovetailing and various adjusting of stones; for when any artifice is necessary to help the mortar, certainly this ought to come before the use of metal, for it is both safer and more honest. XII 为了避免滥用这种自由，我们应该考虑如何方便地使用鸠尾榫等各种手段来使得石头与石头相衔接。当需要使用某种手段来帮助泥灰时，这种方法不仅更安全，而且也更诚实，因此肯定要优先于使用金属。
