  LETTER 567

  CHARLES LAMB TO WILLIAM HONE

  [March 6, 1833.]

  Dear Friend—Thee hast sent a Christian epistle to me, and I should not feel clear if I neglected to reply to it, which would have been sooner if that vain young man, to whom thou didst intrust it, had not kept it back. We should rejoice to see thy outward man here, especially on a day which should not be a first day, being liable to worldly callers in on that day. Our little book is delayed by a heathenish injunction, threatened by the man Taylor. Canst thou copy and send, or bring with thee, a vanity in verse which in my younger days I wrote on friend Aders' pictures? Thou wilt find it in the book called the Table Book.

  Tryphena and Tryphosa, whom the world calleth Mary and Emma, greet you with me.

  CH. LAMB.

  6th of 3d month 4th day.

  [On this letter is written by Hone in pencil: "This acknowledges a note from me to C.L. written in January preceding and sent by young Will Hazlitt. Received in my paralysis. March, 1833."

  On this day Lamb gave Hone two books with the same inscription in each—very tipsily written.] The Works of Charles and Mary Lamb — Volume 6
