Herstmonceux, Hailsham - It has been a great regret to JCH that he cannot spend a few days in Cambridge as intended, but because he is always leaving home for one reason or another he did not want to get a reputation in his parish for vagrancy. What has WW heard of Kenelm H. Digby's wife: 'Alas! he might too easily be deceived, or rather deceive himself about her character. If she be worthy of him, his marriage will be a great blessing'. JCH gives news concerning the Malcolms. 'It is an evil case to be born at a time when the shadow of coming events almost forces one to join a party. For what party can one join? Whenever in the best there is so much of absurdity, and so little of charity'.

Since WW is so near JCH he will try to visit him. He has just had the pleasure of a visit from Digby [Henry Kenelm Digby]: 'He is looking well and very reasonably happy, and speaks with hope of the progress of religion in France'.

WW sends JCH two of his lectures on moral philosophy. Digby [Kenelm H Digby] has been in Cambridge and since returned to Bath: 'He has been painting a St Michael like the one he painted for you on a much larger scale, and applied to me to know what is the real order of the colours of the rainbow in nature. You think perhaps that this was in order that he might make his mystical rainbow unlike a real rainbow. But not so. He was ready to condescend to the actual. See how age tames a man's spirits!'
