Charus mihi Henricus 1

Plena expectatione longium thematis tui eram 2. I should think you might compose before you go to sleep, or you might dream very much to the purpose. Remember it must be all your own, as I should like to know what original ideas are in the laminæ of your brain. We were very sorry you forgot your Figs, but will send you some –

Vale, meque dilige 3
E Theresa Feilding

Αθανατον οργην μη φυλατε, θνητος ων 4

Is not this a very good maxim?
