She cast aside any lingering fear that no "talk" could ensue; it must, it should.
In a week's time Godwin received another summons to Staple Inn, with promise of Malkin's assured presence. In reply he wrote: 'Owing to a new arrangement at Bates's, I start tomorrow for my holiday in Cornwall, so cannot see you for a few weeks. Herewith I send you my paper, "The New Sophistry", which I have written at a few vehement sittings, and have carelessly copied.
