Summary
Regretting that his Wordsworth paper arrived late and promising to send something for the meeting the following year; saying that what he sent Knight is the beginning of an essay entitled "On the Truth and Wisdom of Wordsworth's Poetry," and suggesting that his recent essay on the "Genius and Passion of Wordsworth" ought to be suitable for publication in the "Transactions".
