Saturday Feb 4th.
Mrs. Martin called & saw Papa & all of us. Papa talked in a fast feverish manner, as if he were determined to be considered “himself”. He told Bummy that he wd. be happy to see James!— But James wont come, I am certain!—
B A I (Henrietta riding punch) drove as far as Barnets. A lovely day!— Busy with my Prometheus. I have finished the 370th line. Reading what I have written to Bro who approves very much indeed. If I publish it, I will also publish a preliminary essay which might be made very critical & interesting.
