"9 p.m." Excellent account of meditative feelings on last year. On Pater: "It recalled no definite childish memories, because since the age of definite memories I have not lived in a world of sensuous impressions like that of Florian." Wordsworth. "I had a passionate desire to find some link between the true and the beautiful...." Alastor. Fitzgerald. "If I could believe in Bradley, as I do most days, I should never suffer from it [conflict between true and beautiful] again." Tragic Muse. Aunt Georgy too inquisitive (like most women). Burdetts. Urged Maud to write him once a week. Alys to give literary criticisms of his descriptions.
