Well, well, well ... the evening starts with some solo reading ...

12 May 1839

"Came upstairs before 9 struck and wrote the last 7 lines – read a few pages at the end of Topography of Egypt and Thebes – "

Then, in code, a different solo activity ...

"then some how or other sleepy and then incurred a cross sitting in my chair till very near ten thinking of π [Pi-Mariana] then in the tower"

"Some how or other" indeed ...

Interestingly, she crosses out "in the tower" which is written in code, and writes - now in plain hand -

"In the tower study arranging my books Till near 11
at which hour Fahrenheit 49o. inside and 42 1/2o outside – fine day –"

Another example of Anne "code switch glitch"

But I digress ...

We now have several instances of Anne incurring a cross in a chair thinking of Mariana ...
