Text Appearing Before Image:
ordained by Gods decree that those who love must parted be—are true. I feel the blow for Beatrices sake almost as keenly as shemust—and I fear she is almost heart-broken. I would youwere with her. I can write no more just now. . . . Ever yours, RICHARD MANSFIELD. As he had prognosticated the doom of Nero,—namely, that, being a tragedy, it would be damned,—he might, perhaps, have been expected to meetthe catastrophe with some degree of philosophiccomposure, but he had built a golden hope uponthat play, and the ill-fortune which it encounteredgreatly annoyed him.
