To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Much has been done here, but much remains to be done, " and something, I think, to undo. I am not partial to destroy- " ing works recently executed; but sometimes cases will occur " where an alternative is scarcely left. My wish is, that you " should look over every thing about the grounds here atten- *' tively, and then freely give me your opinion, as to what alte- " rations or improvements suggest themselves to your judg- " ment, leaving the execution of them to my own discretion or " leisu...re." Such instruction will best plead my excuse for the freedom with which I deliver my sentiments; and if in many instances I must condemn what Mr. Holland has done at Woburn, as a Landscape Gardener, yet, as an Architect, the magnificent Library, in which this volume aspires to hold a place, will be a lasting monument of his genius and good taste. The original situation of Woburn Abl)ey was judiciously chosen in those times when water, the most essential necessary of life, was suffered to take its natural course along the valleys; and before the ingenuity of man had invented hydraulic en- gines to raise it from the valleys to the hills.
