The inclusion of St Paul\u2019s School marks one of the major revisions in our Exterior Model between the version of 2013 and the version of 2021. Early in Donne\u2019s tenure as Dean of St Paul\u2019s Cathedral, the poet John Milton was a student at St Paul\u2019s School before he left for Cambridge University in 1623. In Milton\u2019s poem \u201cIl Penseroso,\u201d the speaker remembers worship at the Cathedral, thus:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\" style=\"padding-left: 160px; text-align: justify;\">But let my due feet never fail<br \/>To walk the studious cloister\u2019s pale,<br \/>And love the high embowed roof,<br \/>With antique pillars massy proof,<br \/>And storied windows richly dight,<br \/>Casting a dim religious light.<br \/>There let the pealing organ blow,<br \/>To the full-voic\u2019d quire below,<br \/>In service high, and anthems clear,<br \/>As may with sweetness, through mine ear,<br \/>Dissolve me into ecstasies,<br \/>And bring all Heav\u2019n before mine eyes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\" style=\"padding-left: 160px; text-align: justify;\"><em>&#8211;\u00a0 John Milton, \u201cIl Penseroso,\u201d 155-166<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Behind Paul\u2019s Cross in both images are mixed-use structures housing booksellers on the ground floor and living quarters for the booksellers above them.

The exterior walls of the houses in the Paul\u2019s Cross model are in the style we generally associate with houses of this period, with the structural beams of the buildings exposed to the weather and painted black, with white-painted plaster covering only the spaces between the beams. These same houses in the Cathedral model show plaster covering the entire exterior structure and painted in various pastel shades.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/aerial-from-north-west-1024x483.png\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is aerial-from-north-west-1024x483.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>St Paul&#8217;s Cathedral from the Northwest (Pre-rendered state).

But King James wanted Donne ordained, and James was Supreme Governor of the Church of England. And so it was done, by John King, Bishop of London. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chapel-1-RGB-2-2-e1609373905837.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-728\" width=\"484\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chapel-1-RGB-2-2-e1609373905837.jpg 576w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chapel-1-RGB-2-2-e1609373905837-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chapel-1-RGB-2-2-e1609373905837-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chapel-1-RGB-2-2-e1609373905837-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 484px) 100vw, 484px\" \/><figcaption><em>St Paul&#8217;s Cathedral, the Bishop&#8217;s Chapel.<\/em> From the Visual Model, rendered by Austin Corriher<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">We also see, in this image, the shops of artisans and craftspeople that were built during this period of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3282\" width=\"803\" height=\"501\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-500x312.jpg 500w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-800x500.jpg 800w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-1280x800.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-1920x1200.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Axon-Overhead-1-BW-4-2048x1280.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 803px) 100vw, 803px\" \/><figcaption><em>St Paul&#8217;s Cathedral from the Southwest. <\/em>From the Exterior Model, c<strong>reated by <strong>Joshua Stephens<\/strong>, <strong>Grey Isley, Eli Simaan, Andrew McCall, Cameron Westbrook, Smith Marks<\/strong>, and Austin Corriher<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Moving further westward, our journey takes us into the forecourt of the Cathedral, where we see, to our left, the Palace of the Bishop of London, with its courtyard, its Great Hall, and other buildings where horses were stabled and the work of the Diocese of London was carried out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Bishops-Palace.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3279\" width=\"584\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Bishops-Palace.jpg 570w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Bishops-Palace-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Bishops-Palace-500x338.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><figcaption><em>St Paul&#8217;s Cathedral, the Bishop&#8217;s Palace.<\/em> From the Visual Model, rendered by Austin Corriher<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">If we approached the Cathedral from further west, perhaps from Westminster, we would come into the City of London through Ludgate and proceed eastward, approaching the Great West Front via a street lined on both sides with buildings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">To the left is the building housing the Vicars Choral, a group of professional musicians who were laymen, not clergy.

Given the fact that St Gregory&#8217;s is much closer to the Deanery than is the Choir of St Paul&#8217;s, it seems likely that when Donne mentions, in his <em>Devotions upon Emergent Occasions<\/em>, that he was  able to hear a congregation singing a Psalm while he is sick in his bedchamber in the Deanery, he is describing sounds coming from St Gregory&#8217;s Church. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Our image of the Deanery is based on information about the Deanery that our colleague John Schofield found in the London Metropolitan Archives. In our image of the Deanery we see the Dean&#8217;s Garden; on the other side of this part of the building were the Deanery&#8217;s main entrance as well as stables for his horses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/vpcathedral.chass.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Cathedral-Aerial-from-SW-WWW-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is Cathedral-Aerial-from-SW-WWW-1024x576.jpg\"\/><figcaption><em>St Paul&#8217;s Cathedral from the Southwest.. <\/em>From the Exterior Model, rendered by A<strong>ustin Corriher<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Returning to the Cathedral, and, again, taking flight, we can see the full length of the Cathedral&#8217;s south side including, especially the Chapter House and the Almoner&#8217;s House. We now know, thanks to the research of Roze Henschell, that the boys who were members of the St Paul&#8217;s Choir lived in this house.
