Summary:
Thought that JH and Charles Babbage were of the same year, but Cambridge Calendar shows differently; can JH solve the puzzle? Visited H. Crabb Robinson yesterday who gave him some sonnets that had been addressed to Wordsworth. Regarding the 1st edition of the Eikon basilike. Reason for Sir James South's knighthood.
