Présentation de l'éditeur
Cowley, as that one which I have had always that I might be master at last of a small house and ample garden, with very moderate conveniences joined to them, and there to dedicate the remainder of nry life to the culture of them and the study of nature. Virgil sfirst wish was to be a wise man, the second to be a good husbandman. But since nature denies to most men the capacity or appetite, and fortune allows but to very few the opportunities or possibility of apptying themselves wholly to wisdom, the best mixture of human affairs we can make, are the emplo3T ments of a country life. It is, as Columella calls it, the nearest neighbor or next in kindred to philosoplry.
