Letters of John Keats to His Family and Friends

CIV.—TO FANNY KEATS.

Reading edition

Wentworth Place, [June 14, 1819].

My dear Fanny—I cannot be with you to-day for two reasons—1^ly I have my sore-throat coming again to prevent my walking. 2^ly I do not happen just at present to be flush of silver so that I might ride. To-morrow I am engaged—but the day after you shall see me. Mr. Brown is waiting for me as we are going to Town together, so good-bye.

Your affectionate Brother John.
