 Returning through the grove, you pals 

 feverai :snches, and arrive at one iiir- 

 rounded by the mod: bewitching Icjiies : 

 It is a mois feat, with this infL-ripiion : 



" Ego lauda ruris amccni 

 " Rivos & nuifco circumlita fiixa nemufque." 



The fpot is totally lequeflered, and might 

 almoft be called the paradife for contem- 

 plation to indulge in: the whole is over 

 arched with the Ihade of tall fpreading 

 trees ; it is furroundcd with banks of Hirub- 

 by wood, of mofs, and ivyj the eye cannot 

 wander from the beautiful, in feaich of the 

 fublime; nor will one figh ever be heard 

 on this bench, for diftant profped. In 

 front you look upon a cafcade, breaking 

 from out a perpendicular bank of ivy; and 

 prefenting to the eye a beautiful fill of 

 tranfparent water, that glitters in this dark 

 grove; the efleft amazingly fine. It takes 

 a natural courfe, and breaking over a 

 ground of rock mofs and ivy, lofes itfclf 

 among the fhrubs at your feet. To the 

 right is a fweet little watery cave of rock 

 mofs, ^c. in which is a fmall ftatue of 

 Venus y the rcH: of the ktwQ is a fine dark 



ihadc: of wood.
