Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parterre, or Whole Art of Forming Flower Gardens Methinks I see great Dioclesian walk In the Salonian Garden's noble shade, Which by his own imperial hands was made: I see him smile (methinks) as he does talk With the ambassadors, who come in vain T' entice him to a throne again. 'If I, my friends (said he) should to you show, All the delights which in these gardens grow; 'Tis likelier much that you should with me stay, Than 'tis that you should carry me away: And trust me not, my friends, if ev'ry day I walk not here with more delight, Than ever, after the most happy fight, In triumph, to the Capitol, I rode, To thank the Gods, and to be thought, myself, almost a God.
