The Sixth Design.

THe sixth is a Ground-work in Embrodery, containing 42 Toises square. The Lists of the outward Walks of the squares of six foot in breadth, are for low flowers: and, at each external Angle of the said Squares is described a quarter of a Circle, in whose Center, a Statue or Figure is to be set up, or in stead thereof there may be planted a Cyprus-Tree, which may be left to grow at discretion. The Fountain contains se∣ven Toises in Diameter. This sort of Ground-works we made at Stock∣holme, before the Palace of the late Queen Mother of Sweden.
