“[The maid] came in just before my dining, and was astonished to find how uncomfortable I was, and repeated it over and over. There is no truth in it; I am more than comfortable. To be sure, of the nine chairs in my room, eight were lumbered with clothes, &c. The two tables, the chest of drawers and the mantlepiece the like; besides about fifty articles on the floor…As to the arrangement, it is my taste; it is order; everything is found without opening trunks or drawers, and I never suffer my room to be swept. These English maids, if they once get into your room, hide everything; and this they call neatness and order. After such a misfortune, which, through inadvertence, now and then happens, it is the work of some days to find the things most usually wanted.”
