Farringford,
I.W.
June 5th/63
Dear Sirs,
Accept my best thanks for these two volumes of the works of that true & rare genius, my friend, Robert Browning– I don’t know where he is– He would make me very happy if he would come & spend a few days with me here. If you will tell him as much when you see him or write to him, you will increase my obligations to you
Yours gratefully
A Tennyson
