My dear Chris:

I congratulate you on your success - We have not a copy of your poem but if you could contrive to send us one here we could forward it to Rydal & get it back to you through Mr Beckett - We are just setting off for Hampton Court with Sir Walter Scott - his Daughter Mrs Lockhart will accompany us a delightful person one of my Father's Lovers or rather she of his - We shall see you in London I hope we cannot get away before the beginning of next week - I am ashamed
