Twelve o'clock
The dryness of the air , the soft western breeze , the tremulous motion of the falling leaves , the rustling of those already fallen under our feet , their variety of lively colors , give a certain spirit and agreable fluctuation to the scene , which is unspeakably pleasing . By the way , we people of warm imaginations have vast advantages over others ; we scorn to be confined to present scenes , or to give attention to such trifling objects as times and seasons . I already anticipate the spring ; see the woodbines and wild roses bloom in my grove , and almost catch the gale of perfume . Twelve o'clock . I have this moment received your letter . I am sorry for what you tell me of Miss H -- ; whose want of art has led her into indiscretions . 'T is too common to see the most innocent , nay , even the most laudable actions censured by the world ; as we can not , however , eradicate the prejudices of others , it is wisdom to yield to them in things which are indifferent .
