[1]Paginierung des Editors Tuesday afternoon 11 Sep. 98.SirI was in hopes of meeting you today at the public library to have had the honor of being introduced to you, as Mr Dasdorff informed me yesterday you generally came there in a morning. My stay at Dresden being very short, I beg youʼll inform me, by return of the bearer, if this afternoon or tomorrow, it would be agreeable to you to be waited upon. – I am writing sketches, biographical and critical, of the German poets, with select specimens of their works translated into the same measure as the original (a method, I find with pleasure, you have followed in your version of our immortal bard) and I am naturally ambitious to know personally a gentlemen who will make a distinguished appearance in my list of poetical writers. I beg your acceptance of a trifling performance I have lately published, and I remain, SirYour obed & hble Servant B BeresfordGolden Angel.[2]Paginierung des Editors [leer]
