It is very dear to me to have certain proof that I am often present in your thoughts: very flattering to see me the chosen subject for your beautiful work. I do not know by what accident I received your gracious note late here in the country: I beg your pardon for the delay in my reply. I shall soon procure the pleasure of repeating to you verbally all the affectionate sentiments of my distine consideration."
