Summary
Expressing his disappointment that she had published her poems "...without my seeing any - though you wished me - makes me feel like an ungrateful monster. Could you not have spared me that, by letting me fancy I helped you with one of them?;" sending her the review of "Orion" in Graham's Magazine; adding, in a postscript, "Well, perhaps I shall never trouble myself with the Philistines of the press after all; but if I do reply, I think even they will have - guess what?"
