Bowood P. Sunday
17 Oct. 1790
I do not venture to write upon the same
paper, because I know the hands of the
Sex are held in a certain veneration,
which might still make a mixture
not quite acceptable. Besides I am
not very well to day, & cannot turn
sentences like the Ladys - I say to day,
because otherwise I have enjoy'd
more Health of Body & Mind this
last Fortnight, than I have done
for this year and a half past, during
which Ills inconceivable what I
have suffer'd from different causes,
& I am now afraid of every wind
as I want oif possible to get thro' the
month so. I then go to Southampton
on a little business for 2 or 3 days
& from thence to Bath, where I
mean to try the Waters for a Fortnight,
& to be in London at latest
