The poem is set in the famous Kew Gardens in London, which was a popular tourist destination during the 18th century. The poem is divided into two cantos, each describing the beauty and grandeur of the gardens in vivid detail. In the first canto, Jones describes the various trees, plants, and flowers that can be found in Kew Gardens. He emphasizes the diversity of the flora and the unique characteristics of each species. He also describes the various garden structures, such as the greenhouses and fountains, that add to the beauty of the gardens. In the second canto, Jones focuses on the animals that inhabit the gardens, such as birds and insects. He describes their behavior and interactions with the environment. He also touches on the history of the gardens, including its origins as a royal residence and its transformation into a public park.Overall, Kew Garden: A Poem In Two Cantos is a celebration of the natural world and the beauty of man-made gardens.
