Scope and content

WW sends JCH two of his lectures on moral philosophy. Digby [Kenelm H Digby] has been in Cambridge and since returned to Bath: 'He has been painting a St Michael like the one he painted for you on a much larger scale, and applied to me to know what is the real order of the colours of the rainbow in nature. You think perhaps that this was in order that he might make his mystical rainbow unlike a real rainbow. But not so. He was ready to condescend to the actual. See how age tames a man's spirits!'
