Lydia Maria Child, Letters of Lydia Maria Child (ed. John Greenleaf Whittier, Wendell Phillips, Harriet Winslow Sewall), To Rev. Doctor Allyn, Duxbury, Mass. (search)
To Rev. Doctor Allyn, Duxbury, Mass. Watertown, September 28, 1826. Dear and respected Sir,--Many times hath the spirit moved me to address thee by letter, but much fear of thy wisdom hath hitherto prevented. It is not that my reverence for thee hath at all decreased, that I now take up my pen to follow my own inclinations, but because thine absent daughter hath imposed it upon me as a duty. Thou knowest well that Si Possum is not always more heedful of the voice of conscience than of hor two quiet days, but quiet does not seem to be in reserve for me. How can you expect it, you will say, when you are always engaged on some mad-cap enterprise or other? When Hobomoks, Rebels, Miscellanies, succeed each other, thick as hail? Do you remember, Doctor Allyn, that four years ago you promised me a long letter? An honest man will never refuse to pay an outlawed debt. My Miscellany succeeds far beyond my most sanguine expectations. That is, people are generous beyond my hopes.
