[The Letters of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume II by Elizabeth Barrett Browning]@TWC D-Link bookThe Letters of Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Volume II CHAPTER IX 39/222
If I could but go out, there would be no difficulties; but I am shut up in my winter prison, in spite of the extraordinarily mild weather, through having suffered so much in the beginning of the winter. I asked Sarianna; she also shrinks from the responsibility; is afraid of not pleasing you, &c.
The end of it all is that Mrs.Haworth will think us all very disobliging barbarians, and that really I am vexed.
Why not ask Mrs.Cochrane to get the thing for you? You can but ask, at any rate. I am very anxious just now about dear Mr.Kenyon, who has been alarmingly ill, and is only better, I fear.
Miss Bayley wrote to tell me, and added that he was going to Cowes when he could move, which pleases me; for only change of air and liberation from London air can complete his convalescence. For the rest, I am busy beyond description; but never too much so, mind, dear Fanny, to be glad to get your letters.
Write soon.
