In the hall are placed the two fine figures that represent raving and

melancholy madness, for which Louis XIIth of France offered twelve

thousand louis-d’or. They were executed by the celebrated Caius Gabriel

Cibber, father of Colley Cibber, the dramatist and poet laureat; and

they were repaired in 1820, by Mr. Bacon. They formerly decorated the

pillars of the gateway entering to the Old Hospital in Moorfields. The

building, and the grounds for exercising the patients, occupy an area

of about twelve acres.
