Your sincere friend
John Keats.

I cannot give any good news of Tom.


LXXIX.—TO FANNY KEATS.

[Hampstead,] Tuesday Morn [December 1, 1818].

My dear Fanny—Poor Tom has been so bad that I have delayed your visit hither—as it would be so painful to you both. I cannot say he is any better this morning—he is in a very dangerous state—I have scarce any hopes of him. Keep up your spirits for me my dear Fanny—repose entirely in

Your affectionate Brother
John.


LXXX.—TO GEORGE AND GEORGIANA KEATS.

[Hampstead,[84] about Decr. 18, 1818.]
