Card
In reply to all invitations from Chicago to share the
hospitality of their beautiful homes at any time during [25]
the great wonder of the world, the World's Fair, I say,
Do not expect me. I have no desire to see or to hear
what is to be offered upon this approaching occasion.
I have a world of wisdom and Love to contemplate,
that concerns me, and you, infinitely beyond all earthly [30]
expositions or exhibitions. In return for your kindness, [1]
I earnestly invite you to its contemplation with me, and
to preparation to behold it.
