Lady Byron to Henry Crabb Robinson, Thursday, January [?] [1855].   

Dear Mr Robinson

       As I wish to keep my mind disengaged to-day for some other pressing matters, I defer the consideration of the enclosed, & send it to you for the purpose of enabling you to form an opinion, before I have the pleasure of seeing you tomorrow.

       The Third in our party last night seemed little inclined to leave us a Duet – he talked of asking your advice on some of his projects.

            Yours very truly

                         A I: Noel Byron

Jany 5th

Endorsed: Jan 1855.
