Scope and content

C/o Mrs Read, Grasmere. - He and his mother are enjoying their holiday in the Lakes, despite the rain; likes Grasmere more than Windermere and the 'associations are just right'. 'Billy here' [William Wordsworth] is 'in proportion], unlike 'Billy of Normandy' [William the Conqueror] and 'he of Stratford' [Shakespeare]. Much enjoyed visiting Dove Cottage, although not the portraits of [Thomas and Matthew] Arnold next to Coleridge's. Are going for a drive round Thirlmere, then on to the Patterdale Hotel Ullswater tomorrow. Asks where Joanna's Rock [as referred to in Wordsworth's "To Joanna"] is.
