I want to see you much, very much.

You have much to tell me that it is needful that I should know, and I beg you to come to see me.

Tell your superiors from me that your visit to me will be more than an act of charity to me personally, and that it is highly necessary--not merely as a matter of pleasure to us two--that we should meet; and tell them that I earnestly beg to have you come and spend a few days with me.
