Fine ― gray ― gleamy ―warm.

No sleep till 5 ― that disgusting young Sterling making a row all night ― μεθυσμένος, μοῦ φαίνεται.1

Worked little ― (Cypresses of large Florence) ――― but not ill.

At 1.30 went out: called on Le Mesurier who went with me to the Ascension Temple ― where I drew till 6. (Le Mesurier staid till 5.)

Παρασκευὴ ― the nice girl of Ἀνάλειψις ― came to talk to me.

Home by 6.30.

Dined.

& Penned out till 10.
