　　LETTER 577

　　CHARLES LAMB TO EDWARD MOXON

　　[P.M. April 27, 1833.]

　　Dear M. Mary and I are very poorly. Asbury says tis nothing but influenza. Mr. W. appears all but dying, he is delirious. Mrs. W. was taken so last night, that Mary was obliged at midnight to knock up Mrs. Waller to come and sit up with her. We have had a sick child, who sleeping, or not sleeping, next me with a pasteboard partition between, killed my sleep. The little bastard is gone. My bedfellows are Cough and cramp, we sleep 3 in a bed. Domestic arrangem'ts (Blue Butcher and all) devolve on Mary. Don't come yet to this house of pest and age. We propose when E. and you agree on the time, to come up and meet her at the Buffams', say a week hence, but do you make the appointm't. The Lachlans send her their love.

　　I do sadly want those 2 last Hogarths—and an't I to have the Play?

　　Mind our spirits are good and we are happy in your happiness_es_.

　　C.L.

　　Our old and ever loves to dear Em.
