Much excited about plans and prospects. Chev has bought the
house in Boylston Place.1 God grant it may be for the best.
Determine to have classes in philosophy, and to ask a reasonable price for my
tickets. . . .
The Sunday's devotion without the week's thought and use is
a spire without a meeting-house. It leaps upward, but crowns and covers
nothing.
I have too often set down the moral weight I have to carry,
and frisked around it. But the voice now tells me that I must bear it to the
end, or lose it forever.
