The INTRODUCTION. 
Trees, E-ver-Greens, Flowering Shrubs, Bafins, Fountains, Canals, 
Cafcades, Grottos, Warrens of Hares and Rabbets, Aviaries, 
Manazeries, Bowling-Greens ; and thofe rural Objects, Hay- 
Stacks and Wood Piles, as in a Farmer's Yard in the Country. 
Which feveral Parts are difpofed of in fuch a Manner, and 
Diftance, as not to fee, or know of the next approaching, when. 
we have feen the firft; fo that we are continually entertain’d: 
with new unexpected Objets at every Step we take; for the 
Entrances into thofe Parts being made intricate, we can never 
know when we have feen the whole. Which (if I miftake not) 
is the true End and Defign of laying out Gardens of Pleafure. 
By this Method of laying out Gardens, thofe that are but 
fmall, will be made to appear as very large ones, and thofe 
thar are fpacious and large, Grand and Noble. 
If we imagine that the Avenue B, Plate IIL takes its Be- 
ginning from an open Plain or Lawn lying before a Houfe, as 
the Avenue V, doth of Plate Il. from the plaim Parterre there 
defcribed, we have another Defign ‘that is Grand and No- 
ble, which is fuppofed to be planted in the Manner aforefaid, 
the Walks about the Canal excepted, which fhould be of /fately 
Pines, and the Thickets B and D, which finifh the two crofs 
Views, fhould end in a Mixture of Ever-Greens back’'d with. 
lofty Pines behind them. 
-The Groves E, and F, F, that terminate the Water, have a 
much finer Afpe& being planted in that rural Manner, than. 
when ranged in Lines like a Cherry or Apple Orchard, as be- 
fore noted in the Beginning of this Introduction. 
* Plate V. isa third Defign of an Avenue with its Wilder- 
eh on cach Side, wherein is contain’d great Variety of 
alking. The Avexue B, D, having its Cana/ terminated 
at both Ends with Groves of Foreft Trees, is fomcthing out 
of the common Road: But when the Bodies of fuch Trees are 
kept prun’d up about twenty Feet high, the Water makes a 
fine Appearance, being view’d through them ; as alfo have 
diftant Hills, rv. 
The Walk E F, is fuppofed to be a Terrace from whence 
we have a fine View over the Country, which is planted with 
Platanus, ot Englifo Elms, that always afford a pleafant Shade. 
in this Manner there are many noble [Valks in England want
