Tuesday

walked
with
W.
over
the
Raise.
It
was
starlight.
I
parted
with
him
very
sad,
unwilling
not
to
go
on.
The
hills,
and
the
stars,
and
the
white
waters,
with
their
ever
varying
yet
ceaseless
sound,
were
very
impressive.

noise
of
boys
in
the

some
animal.

a
little
in
the
garden

came
home.
Very
pleasant
now.
Rain
comes
on.

them
all
well.
