Madam,

I could make a great many excusses and apologies for my not having been easiast in answering your polite and obliging letter you have been to good as to write to me a few weeks ago, but I will be true, and confess that I must have an immense time to put together a few lines in English; I find a litle journey to England will be very necessary for me for a great many reasons, let one be to improve my writing, the cheaf one; you may easely guess; your Ladyship may or will believe I hope, that the pleasure to pay my duties: to you and your amiable Family, is a real one to, no body in the world I am sure has more esteem for you than I have.
