Mary Delany in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin - October, 1731

from Autobiography and Correspondence of Mary Granville, Mrs Delany: with interesting Reminiscences of King George the Third and Queen Charlotte, page 295:

Yesterday we went to Christchurch, one of the cathedrals. I cannot say they have much reason to brag of the architecture of it, but they have good voices and a very sweet organ.
