3011. Robert Southey to Chauncy Hare Townshend, 9 [August] 1817 *
Q Anne Street. Saturday 9. April [1] 1817
My dear Chauncy
Here I am, safely returned to England, – & should you come to London during the next week, I will be here at any hour which you will fix, between nine in the morning & five in the afternoon, on any day from Tuesday till Sunday. Give me a line to say <if, &> when I may see you.
I give you joy of your success at Cambridge, – & feel as much pleasure in it as if I were your nearest & dearest relation. The poem is full of good feeling, & of power. [2] Some day I will look it over with a critical eye, & point out every defect which I can discover; – there is not one in this there will be little to detect.
God bless you
Robert Southey
I write this supposing you may be near London.
