[salute] Sir
May I please have the honor of responding tomorrow to your affable invitation to visit
you at The Hague? I sense that I need to converse with you; it is from this deep well
that I will seek to refresh my parched ideas. If I do not arrive at The Hague tomorrow,
it certainly will be Saturday of next week. Since no one knows me at this residence,
I would be delighted to hear their conversations, but alas, I cannot be absent from
the enslavement of the
Gazette for very long.
1 I hope that my body will profit from it as much as my spirit because according to
the doctors, my fairly poor health would benefit from a little change in the air.
[salute] I have the honor to be, with the same devotion and veneration that your excellency
has shown to me, your very humble and very obedient servant
[signed] A M. Cerisier
