The exigencies of the ground at his disposal forced Federigo to give the building an irregular outline. The fine façade, with its embayed logge and flanking turrets, is placed too close upon the city ramparts for its due effect.
We walked at night in the open galleries of the cathedral-cloister white, smoothly curving, well-proportioned logge, enclosing a green space, whence soars the campanile to the stars. The moon had sunk, but her light still silvered the mountains that stand at watch round Chiavenna; and the castle rock was flat and black against that dreamy background.
12 Learne you there to fixe and make sure the colour to be giuen by logge wood: so shall we not need to buy woad so deare, to the enriching of our enemies. 13 Enquire of the price of leckar, and all other things belonging to dying.

Presently a dark corner of the inclosure of Santa Scolastica looms before the wayfarers. Benedetto is thinking by what a mysterious way God has led him from the logge at Praglia, where Jeanne tempted and conquered him, to this toilsome ascent amidst the gloom towards another holy spot, with Jeanne near, and his heart anchored in Christ.
Close by the church is the Monastero of the Canons, within which there remains the lovely cloister which should be compared with those at S. Vitale and S. Giovanni Evangelista of the same period. This of S. Maria in Porto, however, is the finest, having doubled storied logge. Above all the exquisite Loggia del Giardino should not be missed.
High above them the glass of the Logge shone in the moonlight. Benedetto, recalling an audience the late Pontiff had granted him, was astonished at being conducted by this strange way.
Having crossed the courtyard in a straight line, the priest entered the narrow passage leading to the small stairway called "dei Mosaici," and stopped before the door opening on the right, where the stairway called "del Triangolo" descends. "Are you acquainted with the Vatican?" he inquired. "I am acquainted with the Museums and the Logge," Benedetto replied.
When Benedetto had answered that, years ago, he had paid a single visit to the museums of the Vatican, the Logge, and the Gallery of Inscriptions; that on that occasion he had not reached the Logge from the courtyard of San Damaso; that he had had no idea where he should find the Sovereign Pontiff, the Pope was silent for a moment; absorbed in thought.
