Trinity. - Found a manuscript poem about Epimetheus in London and was interested as he is himself 'engaged on a work yet unfinished'; pretends not to realise it was written by Bob; was charmed by the story of the Gods and Titans in the first canto, though thought 'the author' lost 'command over the metre and style' in the second; declares that his own mistress is Clio [muse of history', a 'great breeder of the imaginative and epic character of mind'. His heart is 'as warm as it ever was' towards Shelley; hopes it will always be so towards 'living poets and their trade', especially his brothers.
