Bellevue House, Ramsgate.
By favour of Mrs. Gliddon—post unpaid.
Percy Street, August 31st, 1821.
My dear Si si si

Mr. and Mrs. Novello tell me that you will be gratified at having a word from me, however short. What word shall I send you, equally short and sweet? I believe I must refer you to the postwoman; for the ladies understand these beatic brevities best. However, if I cannot prevail on myself to send you a mere word or a short one, I will send you a true one, which is, that in spite of all my non-epistolary offences—(come, it is a short one too, after all)—I am, my dear Clarke, very truly and heartily yours,

Leigh Hunt.

P.S.—Novello and I are just putting the finishing touch to

our first Musical Evening, which I hope Power will put it into my ditto to send you a copy of.
