LETTER 545
CHARLES LAMB TO EDWARD MOXON (?)
[P.M. June 1, 1832.]
I am a little more than half alive— I was more than half dead— the Ladies are very agreeable— I flatter myself I am less than disagreeable— Convey this to Mr. Forster— Whom, with you, I shall just be able to see some 10 days hence and believe me ever yours C.L.
I take Forster's name to be John, But you know whom I mean, the Pym-praiser not pimp-raiser.
[This letter possibly is not to Moxon at all, as the wrapper (on which is the postmark) may belong to another letter.]
