            Birmingham, 25 Sept. 40 My dear Madam
Accept my sincere thanks for the songs you so kindly sent me, the perusal of which will afford my a great treat, as the one in C has done yesterday evening when performed by you in so admirable & masterly a style. All your performances at this festival will indeed be amongst my most pleasant & delightful recollections and I wish & hope we may soon meet again that I may have an opportunity of becoming more and more acquainted with your extraordinary musical talents. Believe me always
yours very sincerely
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
