Dorothy Wordsworth

Wednesday.--It
was
a
beautiful
spring
morning,
warm,
and
quiet
with
mists.
We
found
a
letter
from
M.
H.
I
made
a
vow
that
we
would
not
leave
this
country
for
G.
Hill.[55]
...
William
altered
The
Butterfly
as
we
came
from
Rydale....
[Footnote
55:
Gallow
Hill,
Yorkshire.--ED.]
Thursday.--
...
No
letter
from
Coleridge.
Friday.--
...
William
wrote
to
Annette,
then
worked
at
The
Cuckoo....
After
dinner
I
sate
2
hours
in
the
orchard.
William
and
I
walked
together
after
tea,
to
the
top
of
White
Moss.
I
left
Wm.
and
while
he
was
absent
I
wrote
out
poems.
I
grew
alarmed,
and
went
to
seek
him.
I
met
him
at
Mr.
Olliff's.
He
has
been
trying,
without
success,
to
alter
a
passage--his
Silver
How
poem.
He
had
written
a
conclusion
just
before
he
went
out.
While
I
was
getting
into
bed,
he
wrote
The
Rainbow.
Saturday.--A
divine
morning.
At
breakfast
William
wrote
part
of
an
ode....
We
sate
all
day
in
the
orchard.
Sunday.--We
went
to
Keswick.
Arrived
wet
to
the
skin....
Monday.--Wm.
and
C.
went
to
Armathwaite.
Tuesday,
30th
March.--We
went
to
Calvert's.
Wednesday,
31st
March.--
...
We
walked
to
Portinscale,
lay
upon
the
turf,
and
looked
into
the
Vale
of
Newlands;
up
to
Borrowdale,
and
down
to
Keswick--a
soft
Venetian
view.
Calvert
and
Wilkinsons
dined
with
us.
I
walked
with
Mrs.
W.
to
the
Quaker's
meeting,
met
Wm.,
and
we
walked
in
the
field
together.
Thursday,
1st
April.--Mrs.
C,
Wm.
and
I
went
to
the
How.
We
came
home
by
Portinscale.
