Dorothy Wordsworth
27
2nd.--A
very
high
wind.
Coleridge
came
to
avoid
the
smoke;
stayed
all
night.
We
walked
in
the
wood,
and
sat
under
the
trees.
The
half
of
the
wood
perfectly
still,
while
the
wind
was
making
a
loud
noise
behind
us.
The
still
trees
only
gently
bowed
their
heads,
as
if
listening
to
the
wind.
The
hollies
in
the
thick
wood
unshaken
by
the
blast;
only,
when
it
came
with
a
greater
force,
shaken
by
the
rain
drops
falling
from
the
bare
oaks
above.
3rd.--Walked
to
Crookham,
with
Coleridge
and
Wm.,
to
make
the
appeal.
Left
Wm.
there,
and
parted
with
Coleridge
at
the
top
of
the
hill.
A
very
stormy
afternoon....
4th.--Walked
to
the
sea-side
in
the
afternoon.
A
great
commotion
in
the
air,
but
the
sea
neither
grand
nor
beautiful.
A
violent
shower
in
returning.
Sheltered
under
some
fir
trees
at
Potsdam.
5th.--Coleridge
came
to
dinner.
William
and
I
walked
in
the
wood
in
the
morning.
I
fetched
eggs
from
the
Coombe.
6th.--Went
a
part
of
the
way
home
with
Coleridge.
A
pleasant
warm
morning,
but
a
showery
day.
Walked
a
short
distance
up
the
lesser
Coombe,
with
an
intention
of
going
to
the
source
of
the
brook,
but
the
evening
closing
in,
cold
prevented
us.
The
Spring
still
advancing
very
slowly.
The
horse-chestnuts
budding,
and
the
hedgerows
beginning
to
look
green,
but
nothing
fully
expanded.
7th.--Walked
before
dinner
up
the
Coombe,
to
the
source
of
the
brook,
and
came
home
by
the
tops
of
the
hills;
a
showery
morning,
at
the
hill-tops;
the
view
opened
upon
us
very
grand.
