tended, than they are kept clofely (horn into thetn ; 

 for nofooner do the trees begin to make frefh fl:ioots, 

 but the whole frame is altered ; and infl:ead of carrying 

 the fine fini(hcd appearance of a regular piece of ar- 

 chitedure, it is grovvn into a rude unpolifhed form. 

 This expenfive fort of work never has made much 

 progrefs in England, but that part of the French tafte, 

 . in furrounding all the feveral divifions of gardens with 

 tall clipped Hedges, making great alleys, forming the 

 walks into ftars, and the like ftiff performances, have 

 too much obtained for fome years paft in England : 

 and the taller thefe clipped Hedges were, the more 

 • they were admired ; though many times they Ihut out 

 ' from the view the fight of fome of the ndblefl: Oaks, 

 and other timber trees, growing in the quarters, which 

 are infinitely more pleafing to a perfon of true tafte, 

 than all the ridiculous* forms it is poffible for trees to 

 be framed in by art. Befides, when the expence of 

 keeping thefe Hedges, together with the great litter 



' theyoccafion when clipped, is confidered, thefe, ad- 



'ded to many other reafons which might be given, are 



■ fufficient to exclude therti out of gardens •, where they 



can never be efteemedneceflarv,but to fhut out from 



the view the fight of worfe objedls. v-
