PIER The masses or clusters of masonry between doors, windows,

and used as a termination to many parts of Gothic
architecture.

cleansing the communion vessels.

the rectangular mouldings over it. Early tracery
originated from the piercing of the spandrels of windows.

SPIRE The acutely pointed termination of towers, etc.,
originating by the elongation of the early pyramidal
roofs.

thickness of the wall, also of doorways, etc.; the term
