 or a Pouffin ; whether a child in fport, or a man for 

 hire : the meaneft may do the little there is to be done, 

 and the beft could reach no farther. But wherever a 

 better ftyle is adopted, and Gardens are to be natural, 

 without refemblance to vulgar Nature; new without 

 affectation, and extraordinary without extravagance; where 

 the fpeclator is to be amufed, where his attention is 

 conftantly to be kept up, his curiofity excited, and his 

 mind agitated by a great variety of oppofite pailions ; 

 there Gardeners muft be men of genius, experience and 

 judgement ; quick in perception, rich in expedients, 

 fertile in imagination, and thoroughly verfed in all the 

 affections of the human mind.
