I. -- MARY TREVELLYN, at Lucerne, TO MISS ROPER, at Florence.
SO you are really free, and living in quiet at Florence;
That is delightful news; -- you travelled slowly and safely
Mr. Claude got you out; took rooms at Florence before you;
Wrote from Milan to say so; had left directly for Milan,
Hoping to find us soon; -- if he could, he would, you are certain. --
Dear Miss Roper, your letter has made me exceedingly happy.
You are quite sure, you say, he asked you about our intentions;
You had not heard of Lucerne as yet, but told him of Como. --
Well, perhaps he will come; -- however, I will not expect it.
Though you say you are sure, -- if he can, he will, you are certain.
O my dear, many thanks from your ever affectionate Mary.
