About eight o'clock
EVELINA IN CONTINUATION Queen Ann Street , Tuesday , April 19 . THERE is something to me half melancholy in writing an account of our last adventures in London . However , as this day is merely appropriated to packing and preparations for our journey , and as I shall shortly have no more adventures to write , I think I may as well complete my town journal at once : and , when you have it all together , I hope , my dear Sir , you will send me your observations and thoughts upon it to Howard Grove . About eight o'clock we went to the Pantheon . I was extremely struck with the beauty of the building , which greatly surpassed whatever I could have expected or imagined . Yet it has more the appearance of a chapel than of a place of diversion ; and , though I was quite charmed with the magnificence of the room , I felt that I could not be as gay and thoughtless there as at Ranelagh ; for there is something in it which rather inspires awe and solemnity , than mirth and pleasure . However , perhaps it may only have this effect upon such a novice as myself .
