Je Vous remercie de tout mon cœur, cher Maître, pour les lignes cordiales que Vous avez bien voulu m'adresser. Si je me suis plaint à un de Vos amis du peu d'empressement que Vous aviez témoigné à répondre à mes avances (bien à tort comme je le sais maintenant) — c'est que je professe pour Vos œuvres une grande et sincère admiration, j'ai conservé le plus agréable souvenir de Votre personnalité sympathique, — et que je tenais а Vous dire tout cela de vive voix.

Je reviendrai bientôt à Paris et espère Vous revoir.

Recevez l'expression de mes meilleurs sentiments.
