To the Editor of "The Daily Telegraph."
Sir: I am very busy, and have not time to write new phrases. Would you mind again reprinting (as you were good enough to do a few days ago[83]) a sentence from one of the books of mine which everybody said were frantic when I wrote them? You see the date—1863.
I am, Sir, your faithful servant,
J. Ruskin.
Denmark Hill, Nov. 29, 1870.
I have underlined the words I want to be noticed, but, as you see, made no change in a syllable.
