Change in the weather; cold. R. works; I have purchases to make in town in the morning, in the afternoon resumption of studies with Daniella. Visit from the dean, who wishes all educated persons could see our house. No reading.
Cosima's Diaries
Diary Entry of June 4, 1874
Overview
The colder weather brings a quieter domestic rhythm: R. works, Cosima shops in town, and studies resume with Daniella. The dean’s approving visit flatters the household, but the day remains otherwise subdued and without reading or notable diversion.
