WW's 'large book will do its work and efficiently but it wants time ['The History of the Inductive Sciences, from the Earliest to the Present Time', 3 vols., 1837]. The little one I take will work quicker and altogether you are the spirit of the movement and as such I bid you all Hail' ['On the Principles of English University Education', 1837]. RJ would like to review them. Hugh Rose's dislike [of RJ's work on behalf of the Church concerning the tithe bill] is 'rooted and increasing and it heads out in all sorts of ways but as he still thinks he hides it I shall appear blind but I much fear some outbreak in his magazine against me and mine viz. the commissioners and their bill for he is evidently content and happy to believe any thing every frightened, foolish or mischievous country parson he knows (and he knows many such) please to tell him'. RJ has 'not had time to digest the logic of your mechanical Euclid and I do not promise you at present a compleat concurrence in your mode of putting the foundation of demonstration - substantially I think I can see we agree' [Mechanical Euclid', 1837].
