Having pursued your
main studies [in France] about two years,
and acquired a facility in speaking French,
take a tour of four or five months through
this country and Italy, return then to Virginia,
and pass a year in Williamsburg under
the care of Mr. Wythe; and you will be ready
to enter on the public stage, with superior
advantages.—
