Dear Victoria,—(For I have been used to call you so, Mary being your name in heaven, but Victoria that upon earth—
In heaven yclept “my own Mary,”
But on earth heart-easing Vic.)
I conclude from Charles’ letter and your own searching eyes, that you saw the announcement of the verses in the Tatler. Be good enough therefore to inspire your husband, if you please, with some of his best rhymes on the spot, for a reason which he will tell you; and believe me,

For your kind words and attentions,
Your truly obliged friend,
Leigh Hunt.
