The previous season she had acknowledged Irving's performances of Hamlet and the Cardinal at his benefit, and she now expresses her gratitude for the many recent pleasures from his art. (Postscript) His life is in the busy world and he may like as much as they the lines on the City in the accompanying little volume - she never found the thought expressed before. |

Written by a secretary? The Cardinal is Richelieu. The volume is unidentified but might be F. Locker Lampson's 'London Lyrics'. |
