| Description: | At length, Dear Angelica our apprehensions are realized and your coming is deferred. But though life is too short to render it agreeable to lose even a winter in the passage from hope to enjoyment in any thing which materially interests us — yet if you do really come in the spring and bring with you Mr. Church it will afford us consolation, because it will leave life ultimately at hazard and may give us earlier the pleasure of seeing him — But prithee do not let the Winter freeze the inclination and produce more procrastination — For one cannot always live on hope — Tis thin diet at best. | ||
