Sunday 21

My dear Henry

The Llewelyns <2> are going to Abb. <3> on Friday to stay till Monday. I shall be there, & if they go home from thence I shall probably remain there some time after them – will it suit you to join us there Friday or Saturday?

I am trying to understand the stereoscope – pray bring some specimens of what you have in flower at Lacock. if we have but a little rain now I promise you a good deal to see at Abb. in flower, as well as growth since you were there.
