The Prose Works of William Wordsworth

PART III
281/791

Virgil gives a high place in Elysium to the improvers of life, and it is neither the least philosophical or least poetical passage of the _Aeneid_.[58] These points of difference being stated, I may say that in other things I greatly approve both of the matter and manner of your Sermon.
Do not fail to return my best thanks to the lady to whom I am obliged for the elegant and accurate drawing of Broughton Church.

I should have written to thank her and you for it immediately, but I foresaw that I should have occasion to write to you on this or other business.
All here desire their best remembrances; and believe me (in great haste, for I have several other letters to write on the same subject), affectionately yours, W.WORDSWORTH.[59] [58] 'Quique sui memores alios fecere merendo.' _Aen_.vi.
