Hey, Gaugs. We have thunder here. Barely a spit of rain, but the sound effects are working.

taken from a letter from Mary Shelley to Leigh Hunt: [MWS to Leigh Hunt, Dec. 11, 1823] . . . . You make one indeed guilty of one of the seven deadly sins (invidia) when you talk of summer weather: cloud, rain, fogs, dirt such are the alternations of our genial sky--it is, this blessed paese a prison & the worst of prisons--God only knows when I shall revisit my dolce nido, but I sigh bitterly for it--this winter at Rome instead of here--I may not dream of such bliss.--My great consolation here is music; the music with Vincenzo & his friends provide me: I go to the chapel; [1] I have been with Mrs. W. [Williams] to a concert that they have established & I hear it at his house. He has made me a convert to Haydn--Do you know the piece, "A New Created World"--in his Creation; what a wonderful stream of sound it is; it puts me in mind of those beautiful lines of Milton "Untwisting all the chains that tie The hidden soul of harmony"
