below the Jette there is a triple Cafcade, made from three round 
Bafins, whereof the uppcrmoft appears to make a Iheet a&our a foot 
in depth, the middle-one near about two foot, and the lowermoit 
four foot. Between thefe three Bafins the fpaccs or intervals arc 
filled all round with Shells^ 8cc. the which Shells are feen round them 
through the Sheets of Water that fall from the faid Bafins. • 
On the North and South-fide of this Fountain , fix yards from 
one of the defcents by three Steps, there are two Summer Houfes^ the 
one oppofite to the othei*. They are within painted in frefco and 
hron\e^ and have Cupolas over them, painted Blew and Gilded. In- 
to thefe Hoifes we enter by folding Doors, which confift of two foot 
Wainfeot from the bottom, the reft in broad Glafs up to the Cupola. 
Each of thefe Houfes hath four Shafh-windows, befides the Doors, 
and hath on each fide of them, contiguous to the middlemofl and 
largeft Windows, an Aviary^ wherein are kept curious Foreign, or 
Singing Birds. When the Shafh-windows next to the Aviaries are 
opened, there is ftill a Wire-grate remaining, to hinder the Birds 
from flying out ^f their Aviaries into the Summer -houfes. Thefe 
Houfes are paved with white and red Marble, cut into curious Fi- 
gures, but they are bordered all round with black Marble, of half a 
foot breadth, over which Border there isalfo a Ledge of white Mar- 
ble, between the black, and the Waiufeot. 
The Aviaries that adjoin to the Summer-houfes, are like wife co- 
vered* with lefler Cupola’s of Lead, painted Blew and gilded j but 
the large Cupola in the middle has a round Glafs-window, and ano- 
t her little Cupola in the middle has a round Glafs-window , and 
another little Cupola ^ho\e the Window, and on the top of the high- 
eft Cupola in each Houfe there is a Gilded Pine- apple placed on a 
Gilded Balls. Thefe Aviaries have' on three fides Grates of Wire, 
which do reach from the Cupola above, to a Stone-wall about two 
foot high at bottom. The two outmoft Side-grates have wooden 
Shutters without thegrj, and thofe Shutters an oval Glafs-window in 
them towards the top. In the middle of the Aviaries there is a 
fette, whofe Water falls into a little fhallow leaden Bafin, near a 
yard fquare. Behind thefe Aviaries there are other leffer ones, open 
above, and on one fide, for the receiving fome particular Birds, that 
muft be more in the open Air, or that muft be kept alone by them- 
felves. 
And befides thefe Aviaries, there are in two corners of this Gar- 
den, on the Northweft, and Southeaft, two other Houfes in three 
divifions, for Ducks, Pigeons, Poultrey, &c. with holes on both 
fides at the bottom for the Fowl to enter. The middle part of thefe 
Houfes is now ufed for tame Pigeons, and has a large Wire-grate 
towards the Air, and a Spout in the middle, that falls into a (hal- 
low round Leaden Bafin of about two foot diameter.
