very simple and ignorant; but as an assistant I think he might be
of considerable utility, and that between us we could produce a
version which, although it might not be particularly elegant, would
be clear, grammatical and faithful to the original. In the mean
time I shall pursue my studies, and be getting every thing in
readiness for setting the printers at work; and with a humble
request for SPEEDY INSTRUCTIONS, in order that as little time as
possible may be lost in the work of the Lord, I have the honour to
remain, Revd. and dear Sir,

Your most obedient and humble servant,

GEORGE BORROW.

P.S. - My kindest regards to Mr. Brandram and my other dear friends
at the Bible House. I thank you heartily for your kind advice in
the latter part of your last epistle. Do me the favour to inform
Dr. Richardson that I have followed his instructions in regard to
clothing, etc., and have derived great benefit therefrom.
