should like to hâve a garden like y ours

I bave just ciiough to amuse myself.

Extremely so.

I hâve not many, but aile are good.

If you will be so kind ; I also am very fond of flowers, but unfortunalely I hâve no garden.

I like very much Hyacinths, Crocusses and Tulips.

It is a small bed planted with Violets, Ranunculusses,Anemones and Jonquilles.

The Daffodils, Primroses and ail early plants will soon be in blossom.

They are double Wall-flowers.

I like them very much, but I don't care for their smell.

I must say I give ail my spare moments to it.

No doubt, nothing pleases me more than the pretty Snowdrops.

Don't speak of those destructive things, they eat everything; look at that poor shrub, it has hardly any leaves left.

Yes, every year there are a great quantity of g râpes.

Yes, they are, but I hâve nothing to do with them; I hâve a gardener who perfectly understands pruning.

Indeed, up to the présent the appearance is favorable, the trees are loaded.

It is certainly a very great pleasure.

campagne.
