George Eliot to Mrs. Mark Pattison, London, 17 November 1873. "Glad to hear a good account of the Rector. Best regards, and congratulations that he is able to carry armour and weapons well. We are unusually "up" in the literature of our time -- have been reading aloud Max Müller's Science of Religions and Mill's Autobiography, and are in the middle of Spencer's Essays on Sociology. But in the mornings my dwelling is among the tombs, farther back than the times of the Medici. I gather that you are in excellent health, and am glad. We are not without some venerable infirmities." GEL 5: 461
