Thanks his mother for her letter. His leg is now all right, or 'at least playing football does not make it worse', so he should not feel it for more than a few days. Would like to go and see the Messiah on Tuesday very much, though Charlie does not seem interested 'unless it is the Handel festival' which Robert supposes it is not. Would not be worthwhile sending 'the pictures' as there is so little time.

Has found a boy who has a pair of dumb-bells he never uses, which suit Robert very well. Will bring back the Dante and the other Italian books. Would much like to see Mr Belfield again; might write to him if he had his address, but it 'does not much matter'. Does not mind about his father not coming to their house supper, as he can come another year, and 'it would be very nice for Charlie [if their father goes to his?]. Is sorry Charlie lost the house match, but 'they were quite as good as Welldon's [house]'. Trials began this week, and Robert is 'beginning to swot'. The holidays are now very close.

Everything going on as usual at school. Is 'so glad we [the Liberals] won Kennington' and hopes they will also win the other two [by-elections]. There was a concert on Thursday of 'selections from [Handel's] Creation, but it was not very good'; thinks he would have liked it if it had been done well. Is doing hardly any running, training, or football now; the examinations 'begin on next Monday week'. Is sorry that Bathgate could not find the books, as he knows they were left there [at Wallington?]. Charlie is well. Robert 'will be very glad when this term is over, for except for the examinations, there is nothing [he] care[s] for very much'. Does not now like the 'upper set' in his house, who are 'always quarrelling with one or two of the others'; though he himself stays out of quarrels, 'it is a very disagreeable atmosphere to live in'. However, he 'feel[s] confident of better things from the rising generation'.

Anthems by Aldrich, Blake, Blow, Bowman, Boyce, Byrd, Child, Clarke, Croft, Gates, Gibbons, Goldwin, Greene, Handel, Hawkins, Humfrey, Kent, King, Marcello, Mason, Mundy, Nares, Purcell, Richardson, Stroud, Tallis, Tudway, Turner, Tye, Webbe, Weldon, Wise, and Woodward.

Part of the same set as the bass cantoris partbook (item 7), and the contents are related to the treble partbook (item 5). This is a very substantial collection of repertoire dating from c.1680-1780; the appearance of c16th works like Mundy O Lord the maker of all things, Tallis I call and cry, Tye I will exalt thee, Byrd Bow thine ear and Child O Lord grant the King a long life indicates that Boyce (1768) was a source; there are 20 anthems by Croft, mostly from the 1724/5 collection, and much from Page's Harmonia sacra (1800). The manuscript was possibly begun as early as the 1730s, but most of it has been copied later, and was still in use in the 19th century: p.278 contains a pencil note 'This is sung Dec 16 1814' [occasion not identified]. The James Kent works may be autograph.

Numerous copyists, of which some professional hands, were involved. The original ink index is now pasted inside the front cover and bound in at ii and iii.

Anthems by Aldrich, Blake, Blow, Bowman, Boyce, Byrd, Child, Clarke, Croft, Gates, Gibbons, Goldwin, Greene, Handel, Hawkins, Humfrey, Kent, King, Marcello, Mason, Mundy, Nares, Purcell, Richardson, Stroud, Tallis, Tudway, Turner, Tye, Webbe, Weldon, Wise, and Woodward.

The manuscript was possibly begun as early as the 1730s, but the majority of the anthems were likely to have been copied later. This is part of the same set as the alto cantoris partbook at Add. MS a. 665/6.

There were numerous copyists. The original index is now pasted inside the front cover and bound in.
