The only method he could
poftibly rake to prevent giving it
away/ho* his infeription teemed
to promise it. One day as he
was walking in it,a young ftran

him and asked for rhe matter of
the garden. “ Sir,” said the
gentleman, “ I am the owner,
what are your commands with
me ?” “ 1 am come'” replied the
dranger,to take pofleffion of this
beautiful spot, for no man upon
earth is more happy and contes

not feekfor the pofejfwn of my gar
den.”
