‘Cadogan Place: Thursday, 9 Dec. 1824.

‘My dear Rogers,—I admire your beautiful little essay so truly that I don’t know how to criticise it. I assure you sincerely that in my opinion Hume could not have improved the thoughts nor Addison amended the language. It is such a jewel that I am anxious to know where you are to place it.

‘Ever yours,
‘J. Mackintosh.
