Four pages, 12mo, small closed tear, darkened edges, text clear and complete. She apologises for bothering him with "the accompanying little volume" ["Poems" published this year, 1846] , explaining that Rogers was a friend of her "dear & lamented" father's youth. "I have written so much - from the nature of the articles - without my name, that I can scarcely expect so humble an one has reached your ears; but poetry has been to me the relaxation from less congenial labours, and its own exceeding great reward; and I cxannot resist the temptation [.] of presenting my humble offering at the shrine of a Master. [.]".

Three pages, 8vo, fold marks, chipped, pinholes and spikehole in centre, but mainly good with text clear and complete. He apologises for not writing sooner and discusses a book he has sent, firstly the binding, then the content in which the lives and deaths of the debauched Callistus and the virtuous Sophronius are contrasted, illustrated with a quotation from Young's "Night Thoughts".[viz. the scarce [Mulso, Thomas]. "Callistus: or, the man of fashion. And Sophronius: or, the country gentleman". In three dialogues. Dublin: printed by John Exshaw, 1769 - presumably he sees himself as the contented country gentleman - see Note below]. He reports with eulogy the death of his grandfather [part of the evidence for the identification of Daniel - Gent. Mag. in article on Samuel Rogers family (1856), says that his grandfather "appears" to have died in 1775]. He hopes to see Bromley in London and encourages a prompt reply. He then adds an original poem: "The following piece of Poetry, (on this charming season) the first I ever attempted in this kind of verse I submit to your impartial judgment. | On the Spring. || 1. | Far to the North dread winter flies, | And fragrant flowers meet our eyes | And woods arrayed in Green, | While th'airy warblers melting tale, | Melodious echo's [sic] thro' the vale, | And num'rous flocks are seen | [. . .]" Two further stanzas )also AABCCB, follow. Note: Daniel, elder brother of Samuel Rogers, went to Cambridge, trained as a barrister but "settled down in the country as a married man of strong literary tastes and no literary ambition." ["Samuel Rogers and His Circle"] When at Cambridge, his fellow student, Egerton Brydges, commented that he "never saw one of his compositions" . He became a "great reader" and student of Eastern languages ["Early Life of Samuel Rogers"]. This letter provides evidence that at least when young he had literary ambition. I have traced no other surviving MS material in his hand.
