Dorothy Wordsworth
132
Wednesday,
28th
April.--
...
I
copied
The
Prioress's
Tale.
William
was
in
the
orchard.
I
went
to
him;
he
worked
away
at
his
poem....
I
happened
to
say
that
when
I
was
a
child
I
would
not
have
pulled
a
strawberry
blossom.
I
left
him,
and
wrote
out
The
Manciple's
Tale.
At
dinner
time
he
came
in
with
the
poem
of
Children
gathering
Flowers,[63]
but
it
was
not
quite
finished,
and
it
kept
him
long
off
his
dinner.
It
is
now
done.
He
is
working
at
The
Tinker.
He
promised
me
he
would
get
his
tea,
and
do
no
more,
but
I
have
got
mine
an
hour
and
a
quarter,
and
he
has
scarcely
begun
his.
We
have
let
the
bright
sun
go
down
without
walking.
Now
a
heavy
shower
comes
on,
and
I
guess
we
shall
not
walk
at
all.
I
wrote
a
few
lines
to
Coleridge.
Then
we
walked
backwards
and
forwards
between
our
house
and
Olliff's.
We
called
upon
T.
Hutchinson,
and
Bell
Addison.
William
left
me
sitting
on
a
stone.
When
we
came
in
we
corrected
the
Chaucers,
but
I
could
not
finish
them
to-night.
