fortunes (for they are liable to many) fo

 tip a great deal of room, for nothing will 

 grow ftraight that their branches over* 

 hang. 



EITHER in natural or planted woods 

 the trees may ftand fo thick as eight feet 

 diftance, if the natural wood is managed 

 with care after cutting, and the planted 

 wood carefully pruned for a few years af- 

 ter planting. 



THOSE that are fond of pleafure or pro- 

 fit can have no profpect fo agreeable as a 

 well-drefied wood,-where the trees are tall 

 and ftraight, and not a foot of ground 

 loft, the trees growing in a regular plea- 

 fant form, which is agreeable even in win- 

 ter to walk in, and in the fummer is a 

 pleafant made ; at a diftance it is a beau- 

 tiful carpet in the air, far fufpamng the 

 moft elaborate works of what are called 

 pleafure-grounds. All this may be accom- 

 pliflied by following the directions before 

 given.
