[Footnote
76:
This
should
have
been
entered
1st
November.--ED.]
Tuesday,
2nd
November.--William
returned
from
Keswick.
Friday,
5th.--
...
I
wrote
to
Montagu,
...
and
sent
off
letters
to
Miss
Lamb
and
Coleridge....
Sunday,
7th.--Fine
weather.
Letters
from
Coleridge
that
he
was
gone
to
London.
Sara
at
Penrith.
I
wrote
to
Mrs.
Clarkson.
William
began
to
translate
Ariosto.
Monday,
8th.--A
beautiful
day.
William
got
to
work
again
at
Ariosto,
and
so
continued
all
the
morning,
though
the
day
was
so
delightful
that
it
made
my
very
heart
long
to
be
out
of
doors,
and
see
and
feel
the
beauty
of
the
autumn
in
freedom.
The
trees
on
the
opposite
side
of
the
lake
are
of
a
yellow
brown,
but
there
are
one
or
two
trees
opposite
our
windows
(an
ash
tree,
for
instance)
quite
green,
as
in
spring.
The
fields
are
of
their
winter
colour,
but
the
island
is
as
green
as
ever
it
was....
William
is
writing
out
his
stanzas
from
Ariosto....
The
evening
is
quiet.
Poor
Coleridge!
Sara
is
at
Keswick,
I
hope....
I
have
read
one
canto
of
Ariosto
to-day....
