initiation into the diplomatic mysteries. Learn hence, young man
the nature of business: if I had happened to have had business with
the illustrissimo he would no more have seen me than he would
Colonel Lenox, or than Mr Long would me, I having business
with him, the day before. What is most probable is that neither
this familiarity nor any former distances or familiarities meant
any thing or came from any thing except the illustrissimo's general
variability — what is possible is, that among the superior Diplomacy,
the Ld Spencers' for instance or the Ld Grenvilles of the
age he may have heard by accident that the opposition to the
Land won't do and that the consummation of all things is approaching.
Emmeline the 1st lasted me by God's providence exactly
till I got housed - It is a delightful thing, and we must get
acquainted somehow or other with Charlotte Smith. Since then
I have been writing this stuff with some less frivolous stuff to
you on another sheet, giving instructions to Jack for the first of
a set of Tables for you, myself, & Miss F, each of us to have
a copy of on column paper lying upon one of my desks to wait
a glance at whenever occasion comes across, and which will contain
whatever is of any use in Geometry at a view. Table 1st in
order
