The Faith which is in men, though it be of never so large a growth & stature, yet will it not reach the sore and sad malady of the World; but only by an outstretched arm of Works.

Nairne went off after breakfast. I went to the city, & changed a cheque: then I went to the dentist, & spent an hour & a half unhappily, & (I suspect) unprofitably.
I had tea with Lady Limerick & Lord Glentworth her son at her flat, 3 Morpeth Terrace, Westr. She is a very charming & vivacious Irishwoman, daughter of J. Burke Irwin R.M.
I dined at 30 Ennismore Gardens with Lord Emmott. There was nobody there but Lord & Lady Emmott, their daughter, a young man just engaged to her, & myself.
