SD1370.  Margaret Fuller to Elizabeth Cranch

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 15, 364 (in part).

Rome.

9th March, 1849

Dear Lizzie,

I was very glad to have you write that you are going home. … If you do write me a line now, let me know how it has gone with Mrs. Browning. I am very glad you had such pleasure in their acquaintance; a little of the salt of the earth is more than ever needed in this hot climate. It is a shame I cannot have the “Bells” &c. It is here I want to read the Italian things again; half memories of them keep tormenting me. …
