W. Wordsworth."

A little time after, I received an invitation from Mr. Coleridge to pay

himself and Mr. Wordsworth another visit. At about the same time, I

received the following corroborative invitation from Mr. Wordsworth.

"Dear Cottle, We look for you with great impatience. We will never

forgive you if you do not come. I say nothing of the 'Salisbury Plain'

till I see you. I am determined to finish it, and equally so that you

shall publish.

I have lately been busy about another plan, which I do not wish to

mention till I see you; let this be very, very soon, and stay a week if

possible; as much longer as you can. God bless you, dear Cottle,

Yours sincerely,

W. Wordsworth.
