11 October 1802 – 17 October 1802

We walked with Coleridge to Rydale.

Set forwards with him towards Keswick, and he prevailed us to go on. We consented, Mrs. C. not being at home. The day was delightful....

We went in the evening to Calvert's. Moonlight. Stayed supper.

Came home, Mary and I. William returned to Coleridge before we reached Nadel Fell. Mary and I had a pleasant walk. The day was very bright; the people busy getting in their corn. Reached home at about five o'clock....

We had thirteen of our neighbours to tea. William came in just as we began tea.
