Faraday to Carlo Matteucci   10 December 18441

Voi siete giovane e pieno di salute e di speranze; io sono infermo e sconfortato: non dovete quindi meravigliarvi se alle molte vostre lettere rispondo lentamente.

TRANSLATION

You are young and full of health and hopes; I am infirm and disheartened: you must not be surprised therefore that I respond slowly to your many letters.

Date as given in Bianchi (1874), 113; written from Brighton.
