As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 21, 385 (in part).

Paris. Hotel Windsor. Rue de Rivoli

Friday. 9th. Nov’r. 1855

My dear Lowell

Your two letters to me here have given me a great deal of pleasure. …

I saw the Brownings a day or two ago. They spoke most warmly of you. Browning’s volumes ought to be out tomorrow. I expect to have more pleasure from them than from any poetry till you print your next volume, or till I read your former works in Dutch! …

Goodbye. With affectionate regards from my Mother & sister, I am, as ever,

Yours

Charles E. N.
