, notes: ' Milton was an early riser, getting up at four in summer and five in winter. He first had a chapter or two of the Hebrew Bible read to him, having trained his daughters to read sufficiently well in Latin, Greek, Italian, French, Spanish, and even Hebrew, without themselves understanding a word. He then worked, first in meditation by himself, and then, after breakfast, by dictation to an amanuensis. He dined at mid-day, and spent a good part of the afternoon walking in the garden, or p...laying on the organ and singing, or listening to his wife playing and singing. He then resumed work until six, when he received visitors until eight, at which hour he had supper, consisting of "olives or some light thing. " . . . His favourite attitude in dictating was sitting somewhat aslant in an elbow chair, with his leg thrown over one of the arms. He would dictate his verses, thirty or forty at a time, to anyone that happened to be near, if his daughters were absent. His poetical vein was best from the end of September to the end of March.
