Letters and Journals of Lord Byron
Lord Byron to John Murray, 10 February 1814
“I am much better, and indeed quite well this morning. I
have received two, but I presume there are more of the Ana, subsequently, and also something previous, to which the Morning Chronicle replied. You also mentioned
a parody on the Skull. I wish to see them all, because there may
be things that require notice either by pen or person.
“Yours, &c.

me the things when you get them.”
