Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Hopes Robert has arrived safely. Has read the first article in the ["Times] Literary Supplement" [on Robert's "Thamyris, or Is There a Future for Poetry?"]; wonders whether there will be discussion in the correspondence next week. Had a very pleasant week with Robert's 'dear people', though Sir George has been ill and 'confined to his room'; has finished Herodotus and Tacitus's "Annals" and is now reading Thucydides and [Tacitus's] "Histories"; has bought a new text of Thucydides.
