GE Journal, London, 22 November 1868
MS: Yale. Published: Cross, III, 67.
The return of this Saint Cecilia's day finds me in better health than has been usual with me in these last six months. But I am not yet engaged in any work that makes a higher life for me -- a life that is young and grows, though in my other life I am getting old and decaying. It is a day for resolves, and determination. I am meditating the subject of Timoleon. 838
