To an unidentified English admirer ("Dear Madame"), in English: "I regret very much having been prevented earlier to reply to your very kind letter. I feel it quite a special honour that you, Madame, wished to see me as a guest in your house. Thanking you for your friendly invitation I must inform you that it is quite impossible for me to visit England in May or June. I am forced to deprive me of the pleasure this time of seeing England, so highly acclaimed by me [...]".
