Cedars 10th day.

Rose at 6 but it was dreadfully cold. Nevertheless, worked at the Musters Philœ, & wrote notes to Miss S. Markham, R. & Mrs. Bright, &, after breakfast, to S.W. Clowes. ―

Horrible cold! ― I think, at times, that I must go at once. But I didn’t ― au contraire, I went to the Cedars, ― [(]10th day) & spite of gutsache & freezing, ― worked hard from 10 to 5. ― Whether for ill or good ― πόιος ἐξεύρει;1

Returned ― half frozen at 5.30 ― & walked a bit, till 6.

At dinner, was horridly bored ― but by degrees, got a little warmer. The Raleigh brothers are nice lads. ―

Letter from C. Fortescue. ― πάντοτε ὸ ίδιος ― ἥγουν, καλὸς.2
