TC TO [W. H. LEATHAM]
Chelsea, 24 Septr, 1843—
Dear Sir,
I have this afternoon received your two Dramas, of Strafford and of Cromwell;1 and beg to return you many thanks for the gift, which I hope to enjoy in detail before long, when a leisure day is conceded me.
My heretical nature regrets that you had not written in prose rather (for our epoch is that of speech not of song); but good sense in any shape is welcome and precious to me!
With many sincere wishes
Your obliged
T. Carlyle
