If Windham and Fox began to talk of horses, they seemed to fall naturally into what had been said about horses by the old writers.

To take every lineament and feature is not to make an excellent piece, but to take so much only as will make a beautiful resemblance of the whole; and, with an ingenious flattery of Nature, to heighten the beauties of some parts, and hide the deformities of the rest.
