and, lastly,—as I repeat once more,—our own indefatigable and rationally applied industry.

Therefore, dear Miss, exercise yourself cheerfully and courageously in this very honorable branch of the art. If the labour is great, the pleasure and reward which you may gain thereby are still greater.

And now, Miss Cecilia, I announce to you, to your terror, that I shall very shortly be in your neighbourhood, that I shall visit you, and, with an awful, judge-like mien, convince myself in person of your diligence. That you will be greatly alarmed at this, I take to be a matter of course.

I now close the correspondence with which I have so long tormented you, and look with satisfaction towards the moment in which I shall be enabled in person to admire the unquestionably perfect cultivation of your very distinguished talent.

Accept also, for the last time, the written assurance of my unfeigned devotion.

Yours, &c.

FINIS.
