Pray give me your opinion of this & of Payne which I hope to have read by the time I write to you again, tho I have at present a more engaging study namely Aikins Life of Howard which M.r Coke kindly lends me from the book society – I must read Burke again to refresh my politics – & at present I have several afternoon engagements upon my hands which I relish as little as if the Gods had made me poetical. My visit to Stalling is put off illeg which I am glad of as the weather is cold again. We have been alarmed for the life of the Lincolnshire M.rs Beridge which would be a dreadful loss to the Gladwins in every point of view but we now ?hope \flatter ourselves/ she is in the recovery.
Miss Pigot hopes Tom will reply to her in French & the next time I am to assist her in that language. You will give my love to him & believe me your very affectionate
Eliza
