My Darling1^, 2

It is one o’clock, too late for the last post; I waited till after 8.20 to write, on the off chance of a letter from you, and then I had a set of visitors who have only just gone — a young man named Pinsent (cousin of a number of other Pinsents), a mathematician with a passion for metaphysics, who maintained a Kantian view with some obstinacy, and has just now given it up, thereby bringing the evening to an end. He is distinctly able, I think, and beautifully candid. In the afternoon I had a pleasant walk with North — then my lecture, then the German, who was refusing to admit the existence of anything except asserted propositions. Now my brain won’t work any more and I must go to bed. Tomorrow afternoon. Goodnight my Darling. It will be a joy to be with you again, my Joy.
