Newstead Abbey, Sept. 26, 1811.

My Dear Sir

,-In a stanza towards the end of canto 1st, there is in the concluding line,

Some bitter bubbles up, and e'en on roses stings.

I have altered it as follows:

Full from the heart of joy's delicious springs
Some bitter o'er the flowers its bubbling venom flings.

If

[you]

will point out the stanzas on Cintra
