Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - He and Caroline are both 'fairly well, and heartedly contented'. Glad that Robert and Elizabeth are 'deep in Chaucer'; read him aloud to Caroline over two years in which they 'cared for no other poetry'. Is currently reading the four last books of Thucydides; intends then to alternate Terence with [Sophocles's] three Theban plays and four plays by Aristophanes; then to read two Plato dialogues and the four first books of Herodotus: that 'is far enough to look forward to, and (most probably) too far'.
