TC TO JANE WILSON
[early December 1839]
Dear Miss Wilson,
My Wife, ill of cold, yet getting better, requests me to answer for her. She cannot come; but I will, with pleasure;—we will say, on Wednesday, at the hour you mention.
I have finished my article on Chartism; no Tory dare print it, Radical shall; so it is coming out as a separate affair: you shall have the pleasure of condemning it in a week or two.
There is unfortunately no Bürger1 in this house: I send you Wallenstein; all Schiller is here, and much at your service: Tell I reckon his best piece; but I hope you will read both the best and the second-best.2 There is no Tale that I know of translated by Hayward!3 Which Tale can you mean? There is a ‘Tale of all Tales’ by Goethe, translated in these Miscellanies of mine,4 not by Hayward!
Ever faithfully yours /
T. Carlyle.
