Now let us stroll on – ’tis but a step – to Christ Church. Sometimes it seems as though this should take precedence of all other colleges. Its chapel is Oxford’s Cathedral, its quadrangles are the finest, its founder was in some ways the most famous; and lastly (and of least account), if one who has tried the task of “seeing Oxford” in an afternoon ias asked what he remembers best, it is ten to one that he will say “the staircase and its ceiling leading up to Christ Church Hall”. [p. 37]
