June 28. ’65.

Dear Mrs Munro, [1]

Once again, a failure to see you! I was particularly engaged at the opposite end of town,—the Regent’s Park. I did not write this till now, because I wanted to call and say it, but my time is torn to rags just now. I know your husband will be sure of my constant feeling to him: you will take his word, will you not?

Ever sincerely yours

Robert Browning.
