Dear Murray,

I have repeatedly felt a secret satisfaction at the spirit with which, by Clarke’s communications, I heard you pursued your expedition; and have no doubt but it will repay you, in proportion to the talent and industry you have exerted, and are so capable of exerting.

I have received the three vases you have so kindly presented me. Were they of crystal, they would hardly be more precious than they now become, as your gift. I admire the feeling of taste which led you to fix on them. With me the moral feeling unites with that of Taste, and I contemplate at once the work of Art and the gift of Friendship.

I have various things to say; the most important is, that having waited to the last moment, the chapter of the Edinburgh Review has been obliged to be finished, but is still just in time for any fortunate insertion, if you have any to offer. This evening, I imagine I shall be at home.
VISIT TO EDINBURGH.55
To-morrow evening (Sunday) I conceive I shall be in town at nine o’clock. Monday evening I am to be alone: will you take your tea then? It will be alone with me, as my wife has a child’s party. Suit, however, your own convenience.

Believe me, truly yours.
I. D’Israeli.
