VIEW OF THE STABLE FllONT. 
SEEN PROM THE GARDEN. 
The pool is proposed to be square, rather than round, for the following 
reasons : 
first, That a small square pool will appear larger than a round one 
of the same dimensions, because the eye is checked in its progress, and 
the angles being seen perspectively, it varies its shape with the position 
of the spectator; while the round pool is always seen in the same point 
of view. 
Secondly, lhat the inverted picture formed by the reflection of its 
margin is larger and more varied. 
And lastly, that such pools in India are generally of this shape.
