at this time, that he was introduced as Mr Bentham a gentleman
of considerable fortune. He had something to recommend him to
Klaproth for he brought a specimen of asbestos of remarkable
beauty – of a green color divided into filaments of inconceivable fineness.
At Hanover I was amused by the Picture of the Duke of York
(apt illustration of royalty!) pulling his fool’s nose before the whole Court.
When I was In Holland I was very much scandalised
at seeing men & maidens proclaiming their Lust – (Lust is
the word for pleasure – as Lust Sais, pleasure house – Lust
Garden – Pleasure Garden)
At the Hague I dined with Sir James Harris, where I
met with the Son of the lickspittle to the Duke of
Newcastle, who was the dirtiest fellow I ever heard of
& when at school we used to shut the doors against him.
Sir James wanted to introduce me to the Stadtholder but
he was a foolish fellow & I should only have stared at one
who would only have stared at me.
