el fortune! Who would believe my dear
/ Lucretia, that one possessed of as much
riches, should find himself surrounded by
such miserable poverty' My misfor-
tunes have no end, my disappointments
at every step, persecute me. Surround
ed by distress, by pains, by poverty, s.
by melancholy, what is to become Of me,
my dear Lucreta' | will bury myself in
a profound silence, which will be best
suited to my unhappy soul Oh! what
mlsfortunes, so irremediable, what alb
sence, so rigorous, from beloved father,
from cherished wife and fond sister!
The manvrdom of Toledo was nothing
when compared to mine! How shall
: find consolation to sustain my life, dear
est Lucretia? Picture to thyself, my
love, thy companion in a strange city,
= without money and without friends! But
: all will be happiness for me, i'll can
press you to my heart
Oh! my Lucretia, the groans OF my
heart ale re-echoed in the neighboring
fields and mountains of the city! And
d the only consolation which meet here is
: that which ia ministered to me by young
gentleman o,this city (of nineteen years)
: and his amiable mother Mrs. -. Con-
i slider my angel, that am more than cra-
II zy!-without having the means to join
= you in the State of Pennsylvania to fold
e you again in my arms shall however,
n most speedily, when I am enabled to do
d 50, return your embraces. Oh my dear
: Lucreta! IN. pain is insupportable-my
grief is fast hurrying me to the grave, and
n my eyes continually shed tears, when l
= consider that thou art the only companr
r ion have in this strange land. But as
soon as Heaven permits me, ] will hasten
to your tender caresses,

NV beloved Lucretia There is no
~ consolation for miserable unfortunate
like myself, but to communicate his dis-
= tresses to his amiable companion. II
seems to me, dear Lucretia, that Heav-
" en- could not prepare for me greater mis-
cries than have already befallen me-
a Now have no more consolation than to
', hurry myself to your society, as remer
:" dy for all evil Think not that thy be-
;. loved companion forgets thee for single
" moment. No-at every instant ! feel
e you in my heart; as often as | remembes
;. you bathe myself in floods Of tears
y | am dying>of grief-the very warblng
. of the birds, is to me sound Of lament
. the sun afilicts with its rays-the moon
g s herself and all the bright stars present to
!" =, me no other ideas than that Of my DEAR
= est Lucreta. But now, my beloved
what most torments is the worst Of evilsi
not having received letter from you for
II some DAYS How hast thou forgotten thy
once beloved companion! You have
- added fresh torment by your neglect ia
4 u write to me If you do this to murder
