J.B. to Mora
though he could not afford, within the time in
question two or three hours, (that being the time it
might be requisite for a visit from him to me,)
it did not follow that he might not be able to
afford the five minutes that might be made sufficient
in case of a visit from me to him. I
accordingly made a sort of exertion which I scarcely
make once a twelvemonth: I put on my
boots, and off trudged with my Book in one
hand pocket, and a rough but legible copy of so much as
related to My Brother in my two mast last letters
to you in the other pocket. Not choosing to use lose the working part of
my morning for nothing, I made such a riot
among the servants at the Ambassadors, as forced
them to bring down to M. de Colomb to quell it.
Compliments were put aside as nuisances, and
we were instantly upon the most confidential
terms: he anticipated my wish of having the Book
sent to you; and I could scarce get him to say he
would cast an eye over some part of it before he
sent it. I told him there were some other things
I wished him to see, which I could not bring with
me: he said he would come on Sunday if possible;
and if he could not he would let me know;
and he most readily met t my wishes about
the sending of this scrawl. All this time we
were chattering as fast as the words would come
out of our mouths: he seems to be a man of
business: I offered him a hermit's dinner for some
other day at this my hermitage; and he was civil
enough to appear hungry for it.
