Yhe Theory Part L 



"Over into this Iflandj which, in the Middle of a Wood^ 

 looks very agreeable and furprizing. 



The fifth Figure is not entirely fquai-e, as the others^ 

 this Defign appearing moft graceful when it is oblong, 

 which lias obliged me to make, on the Sides of it. Walks, 

 with Grafs-plots of Cut-work. In this Wood are contain'd 

 feveral Defigns, as a great Oval, a Lozenge, and a S. An- 

 drew's Crofs, which all togedier make a very handfome 

 Compartiment. You find in it two Goofe-feet, eight Crofs- 

 -Alleys, and two Receffes, or Sinkings, with Benches, The 

 four Entrances at the Comers, and the two in the Middle^ 

 are continued to a Circular Hall, ornamented with a Bafon 

 and Niches, for Seats and Shrubs. 



In the fixth Figure is fliewn a Wood, the Entrances of 

 which are in the Middle, for Variety ; they are interrupted 

 by the four Angles of a great Lozenge, which leads you to 

 Cabinets contrivM in the four Corners, all diifering one from 

 iinother. There ^re fmall Crofs-Ways over-againft thefe 

 'Cabinets, which ^ifcover the Enti'ance of a Cloifter,- in the 

 -Middle of which are four PafTages that admit you into the 

 Hall in the Center, which is in Cants, with an oval Bafon : 

 Fronting thefe four ftiort Alleys, you find Niches with 

 -Seats. 'Tis needlefs to explain the four Groves at the Cor- 

 -ners, becaufe what they contain may be judged of by what 

 has been already faid on the Subjed of thofe found in the o- 

 ■ther Defigns, which have been particularly and fufficiently 

 t:reated of before. 



The fourth Plate is the fulleft of all, containing ten dif- 

 ferent Groves i the four firft Figures are fit for Places that 

 are oblong, and about an Acre and a half, or two Acres 

 Extent i the fix others following, fliew what may be done 

 in long Slips of Ground, and the narrow Guts of a Gar- 

 den. Thefe Woods are much varied, and though plain^ 

 are neverthelefs handfomely cut, and well wrought. You 

 niay judge of what they contain, by infpeding them, an4 

 applying to the Scale, fo that there is no need of entrin^ 

 into a longer Difcourle of their Particulars*
