Summary
Telling her that he is giving up the plan to send pictures to her because a paper he received from the "authorities" has added some new difficulty to their passage; saying he wants to "burn ... the pictures in the garden, for [he] should never bear the sight of them again"; adding that he is "half mad with vexation."
