‘My dear Friend,—I have just received the enclosed, which I hope you will be so kind as to peruse. It is from Mr. Carrick, a miniature painter, who took my portrait when I met him not long ago at his native place, Carlisle. If you could comply with his wish I should be gratified, and should deem it an honour to be associated with you in this way. You preserve your health, I hope, in this severe March weather. You and your dear sister have both the good wishes of those that remain of this afflicted family.

324 ROGERS AND HIS CONTEMPORARIES  

‘Believe me, my friend of nearly half a century, very affectionately and faithfully yours,

‘William Wordsworth.
‘Rydal Mount: 16th March, 1848.

‘P.S. On second thoughts it is not worth while troubling you to read Mr. Carrick’s letter, which was simply that I might strengthen his application that you would be so kind as to give him a little of your time.’
