"E nell'ora più bella del giorno, intendo dire le cinque del pomeriggio, quando (...) una tenue nebbiolina avvicina l'infinito alle cose certe, io mi trovai essere per superiore decisionedinanzi alla vostra mirabile casa". (...)"Cresciuto in simili stranezzeè evidente che io ami quasi tutti i giardini, e follemente quelli chiusi ed inviolabili, le cui segrete bellezze solo a pochissimi sono concesse."
"And in the most beautiful hour of the day, I mean five in the afternoon, when (...) a light mist brings the infinite closer to certain things, I found myself by superior decision before your wonderful house". (...)"Growing up in such oddities, it is evident that I love almost all gardens, and madly those closed and inviolable, whose secret beauties are granted only to a very few."
