My dear Watts,
How good and kind of you to give me this beautiful photograph! Surely nothing better in its way was ever produced - so far as my experience goes. Thank you must truly. I wish I - or my sister - had been at home when you called with Mrs Watts: we should have greatly valued your visit. I shall venture to call on you and see you both, if I may be so privileged. Meantime and ever believe me, dear Watts.

Yours gratefully and affectionately
Robert Browning
