Dear Lady Shrewsbury - I fear you hast have thought we
very crop and suds, last kept, to run away in such an uncertainty
manner, but I saw that as other resource and must have say if I had
staid. It is quite true that I told you that I have always had it a
point to avoid singing there there are professional honourers; for, here ones
as I am always in singing for any but intimate friends, this feeling of course
becomes doubtly painful when I am watched over by critical ears and
eyes. Some other time, it will give me the greatest perplexity pleasure to sing
at your bidding and as much, as you please for listeners she like yourself
love simple and, I may add, feeling music - for that is all mine care for
tend to.
Yours, by Dear Lady Shrewsbury, very truly
Thomas Moore.

In favor dear Laura Down - I think you will be glad to hear, for my sake, that I have just sent the last page of my Meya Kakov to prof. As I determined to dedicate to you (and will stop them your smile enough be of the property of my determination) it was my intention not to dedicate to any one; and this would certainly have been, that is called, the best certain. But it has occurred to me that I might turn the tribute, such as it is, to account, by opening it to an other friend of mene, whose kindness to our eldest little girl (attorney print Coftoneed brandown, to Americans) was such as it would letter have such tributes to repay. The objections to dedicating this are, especially enough the very reasons of those that certainty in your case. Gray you being a too responsible person, and be a too obscure one - my fear eath you being that of wanting your name, and with him that of thowing too hundred light on it. As
I have, however, it will give him pleasure. I have made up sent to do it, and as the dedication was really your prospect, thank it but honest to announce to you this alienation of it.
I hope to see you about the beginning of next week, & to trust that the "glorious more" will not quite have you off before I arrive.
Ever faithfully yours
Thomas Down.

You will not I trust, have been very engry with me for my long delay in receiving your letter. The anxiety and beath to which I was drown during my visit to town, first by the illness of my poor little girl, & afterwards by the arrangement of my business with husband, were such that I really looked upon the heads of unanswered letters before me in despair and resolving to trust the patience & good-netters of my rooms and with left them all, like a impious bills, till I could afford to discharge them. Mrs. Huston, who is one of these ill-and endorsed, will I know be good-seeking enough to forgive her (I would tell her yesterday) and I will think you will also - you are one of the very first that I have been honestly sold - went to. You will not, Hope, forget the promise you hade her to left her here the pleasure of being your again with the looksellers, whenever you shall feel courage enough (as you might) to help the light of London publicity. I took you before, and in a way that, I will forget you did not like to much inform I am to keep the names of women sacred over from the voice of them, which though I would not say of it as some does one of his sonnas that it is "a loud, rather and infundant lie", what is not cases, a vulgar as well as unlearning voice. This, however, that the mostly a farmy of my arm, and should be very that it was presented as an impious like your from contradicting them our press information & the world. Will very thanks for the kind terms in which you speak of he and my talents (this being the pleasantest shape in which from ever comes to me, am, my dear Mrs. C. and they grow) Thomas Hoover . 357

THOMAS MOORE. 1779-1852.
Marble bust executed in 1842 by Christopher Moore, R.H.A.
Poet. Born in Aungier Street, Dublin, his parents being Roman Catholics. Entered at Trinity College, in his native city, and afterwards at the Middle Temple, London. But all his tastes and talents were directed to poetry and other branches of literature. His translation of Anacreon appeared in 1801, and many other brilliant compositions followed. It is, perhaps, on his Irish melodies and his 'Lalla Rookh' that his fame will mainly rest. In 1827 Thomas Moore published the 'Life of Sheridan', in 1830 the 'Life of Lord Byron', of whom he had been the intimate friend, and in 1831, the 'Life of Lord Edward Fitzgerald.' At the time of his death he was engaged for 'Lardner's Cyclopædia' on a history of Ireland, of which only a portion has appeared. Died and was buried at Bromham near Devizes.
