Excerpt from The Sketch-Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent

I entreat you to believe that I-feel truly obliged by your kind intentions towards me, and that I entertain the most unfeigned respect for your most tasteful talents. M house is completely filled with workpeople at this time, and I ave only an office to transact business in; and yesterday I was wholly occupied, or I should have done myself the pleasure of seeing you.

If it would not suit me to engage in the publication of your present work, it is only because I do not see that scope in the nature of it which would enable me to make those satisfactory accounts between us, without which I really feel no satisfaction in engaging - but I will do all I can to promote their circula tion, and shall be most ready to attend to any future plan of yours.
