ABSTRACT
Wordsworth came over to Ambleside which was our headquarters for a little time, and spent a compleat day with us there at our Inn, and took us to see many of his favourate [sic] spots in the neighbourhood. He is a man with good strong abilities and a great power of words, but I fear there is that soreness in regard to the world & severity in his notions of mankind growing upon him that will prevent him from being so happy as he deserves to be, for he is I understand a very worthy man.
