Ravenna, January 2, 1821. Your entering into my project for the Memoir, is pleasant to me. But I doubt (contrary to me my dear Mad" Mac F V whom I always loved, and always shall?not only because I really did feel attached to her personally, but because she and about a dozen others of that sex were all who stuck by me in the grand conflict of 1815)?but I doubt, I say, whether the Memoir could appear in my lifetime;?and, indeed, I had rather it did not; for a man always looks dead after his Life has appeared, and I should certes not survive the appearance of mine. The first part I cannot consent to alter, even 1. Probably Madame de Flahault, nic Mercer (see Letters, vol. iii. p. 253, note I). 1821.] MADAME DE STAEL. 21J although Madame de S[tael]'s opinion of B. C. and my remarks upon Lady C.'s beauty (which is surely great, and I suppose that I have said so?at least, I ought) should go down to our grandchildren in unsophisticated nakedness. As to Madame de S[tael], I am by no means bound to be her beadsman?she was always more civil to me in person than during my absence. Our dear defunct friend, Monk Lewis, who was too great a bore ever to lie, assured me upon his tiresome word of honour, that at Florence, the said Madame de S[tael] was open-moutfed against me; and when asked, in Switzerland, why she had changed her opinion, replied, with laudable sincerity, that I had named her in a son...<

I once had a letter from Drontheim in Norway1 (but not from a dying woman), in verse, on the same score of gratulation. These are the things which make one at times believe one''s self a poet. But if I must believe that, and such fellows, are poets also, it is better to be out of the corps. I am now in the fifth act of Foscari, being the third tragedy in twelve months, besides proses; so you perceive that I am not at all idle. And are you, too, busy? I doubt that your life at Paris draws too much upon your time, which is a pity. Can''t you divide your day, so as to combine both? I have had plenty of all sorts of worldly business on my hands last year, and yet it is not so difficult to give a few hours to the Muses. This sentence is so like that Ever, etc. If we were together, I should publish both my plays (periodically) in our joint journal. It should be our plan to publish all our best things in that way. I.
