A park and a garden are more nearly allied, and can therefore be accommodated to each other, without any disparagement to either. A farm loses some of its characteristic properties by the connection, and the advantage is onthe part of the garden; but a park thus bordered, retains all its own excellencies; they are only enriched, not counteracted, by the intermixture.

The proportion of a part to the whole, is a measure of its dimensions: it often determines the proper size for an object, as well as the space fit to be allotted to a scene; and regulates the style which ought to be...
