Trinity College - WW has just preached his last sermon: 'I have got through them without getting quite up to the moral part of my subject...No population and in short nothing but one or two analogies from the natural world to illustrate the probability of our being very fairly ignorant of the non general law of the moral world [see WW to RJ, 15 December 1826]. The wish was an attempt to make science fall in with a contemplative devotion which I don't think was difficult though people seem from the notion they had of scientific men to have thought it must be impossible'.
