Text Appearing Before Image:
o neither of us any harm, but everything is for the bestso we do our duty to Heaven. Tell him I think and talk a greatdeal about him (as I do also about you), talk to those whom hehas never seen, but who in feeling an interest in all I love andesteem, require not the aid of sight to admit him and you amongthe number of their friends. How mysterious, when we ponder over it, is this communica-tion by words, and how real and distinct an image do they createin our minds of objects far removed, even of those long buried inthe grave, over which centuries have passed. Indeed so familiaris the image of Sir Joshua to me, his manners, habits, modes ofthinking, and even of speaking, created by the description ofhim, that I feel almost persuaded at times I had actually beenacquainted with him. What a world is that of thought! Andwhat a world does he possess whose thoughts are only of the Unfinished Portrait of Allston by Himself when a Young Man. In the possession of R. Charlotte Dana, of Boston.
