Meditations by Marcus Aurelius translated by George W. Chrystal (~180)

 Unlike the Enchiridion I'm not going to spend three days agonizing over which translation to read for Meditations. Chrystals is public domain, nicely laid out, and very readable. It's not the one from T5FSOB, that's George Long. This one was only about half a dozen years old at the time, which would be pretty recent for Eliot.

I'm curious to see how it compares to the Enchiridion, since they're kind of similar "short notes on Stoicism", but a bit later.
