[184] The Rev. John Hothersal Pinder, M.A., Cambridge, first Principal, from 1830 to 1835, subsequently first Principal of Wells Theological College. [185] North-east of Torquay. [186] Newman, prompted by Isaac Williams, and following Thomas Keble at Bisley, had, unknown to Froude, begun a month before to read the two Church services daily in the chancel of S. Mary’s at Oxford: but a daily Eucharist was then unheard of in the Church of England. [187] _Reminiscences_, i., 217. [188] Frederic Rogers, afterwards Lord Blachford, 1811-1889. He had been Froude’s pupil, and also Newman’s, through a dazzlingly brilliant University career. He occupied Froude’s rooms at Oriel on staircase No. 3 for at least one term during his absence.

[196] The Note in the _Remains_, i., 405, calls attention to the circumstance that R.H.F. was speaking of the Church _system_ only; _i.e._, the Establishment. [197] Both Newman and Froude often employ this word in a sense now quite obsolete. ‘The notion of diversion, entertainment, is comparatively of recent introduction into the word. To amuse was to cause to muse, to occupy or engage, and in this sense indeed to divert, the thoughts and attention.’ Trench, _Select Glossary_, 1890, p. 7. A perfect example of the bygone function of the word occurs in Daniel’s _Musophilus_, where he condoles with ‘Sacred Religion, mother of form and fear,’ in the days when she must ‘Sit poorly, without light, disrobed; no care Of outward grace to amuse the poor devout.’ [198] Joram or jorum is a drinking-bowl.
