Summary:
Directions for travelling from Whitechapel to Hare Street. Asks Smith to bring specimens of his plates, regrets that he has dedicated his life to "the canvass on which nature sketches her wonders - rather than on the individual wonders separately". Believes that from Psalm 22 verse 14 King David must have had some of his own disorder [angina pectoria].
