'At one of these sales I bought a copy of "Bloomfield's Poems", but not so cheaply as to encourage me to combine my biddings. I read Bloomfield with much interest, as I also did a copy of Montgomery's "Wanderer in Switzerland, and other Poems". Being at the time in poor health of body, at which times my imaginative faculty has always been morbibly active, I was unwise to read poetry of this class, which, under the circumstances, was more likely to excite uneasy feelings than to invigorate the mind. And thus it fell out; for while I read of rural scenes and also of the comparative quietude and the superior happiness of country life, I grew uneasy and heartsick of the noisy and restless town...'

?As to reading, I had neither time not strength for more than a very little, yet I did something; as I looked through a translation of the works of that eminent divine, James Arminius, with which I was well satisfied, but especially so with the prefixed memoir of his life. I had also, for a few days, the loan of Mr. Montgomery?s ?Lectures on poetry?, a book which I should have been glad to read thoroughly.?

'Finished the "Whisperer or Tales & Speculations" by Gabriel Silvertongue. It was written by J. Montgomery and part of it appeared in "The Iris" in the year 1795. All the pieces are very entertaining, in so much that I do not know which I prefer above the rest. Mr Evans gave it me [bought on July 15] together with "Prison Amusements & his Trial" [by Montgomery].'
