Excerpt from The Garden That I Love I could live in it.' I suppose I smiled, for a Whole life passed on a piece of earth fifteen feet square, part of which is dedicated to a gravel path, seems a somewhat narrow existence. But, after all, what is narrow? The Garden that I Love is, I allow, a tri¿e larger than that but to the owner of Wilton or Albury I imagine it would appear pitiably small. Withal, not only could I spend'all my days in it, but, as a fact, I do so and the only complaint I ever have to make concerning it is when weeds grow apace or shrubberies become unconscionably untidy and then I blame myself, and say to Veronica, who has often warned me against what she calls my mania for expansion, that I fear it is too large. Gentle as she always is with me, she cannot resist quoting my tardy testimony to the fulfilment of her own predictions. A wise man never says Med culpd to a woman. But then I have no pretensions to be wise, save in love for my garden and for Veronica. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
