_ Early Letters To John S. Dwight Chapter XXXVIII MILTON HILL, Midnight, July 16, '46. My dear Friend,--I could not come this evening, and shall only have time in the morning to go to Boston and take the cars; so we must part so. I will copy some of my verses for you if I can steal the time, and write you from Europe if David Jones permits me to arrive. I must say good-bye and good-night in some lines of Burns's which haunt me at this time, though they have no appropriateness; but they have a speechless woe of farewell, like a wailing wind:
G.W.C. I shall write you again. Will you give this to Jno. Cheever? I have no wafer. _ |
