The Dramatic Commission, which is richer than the committees, would take care of him too; but it would be necessary, I think, for our poor friend to make his request officially. Write to him to this effect..." + L.A.S. to Albert AUBERT, from SAINTE-PÉLAGIE (Prison), January 12, 1846 - "My friend. I am moved to tears, delighted to ecstasy by your admirable feuilleton. It makes me believe in the goodness of my work. Your talent, like a magic prism, has illuminated it with a thousand colors and a thousand lights. What praise, for God's sake! It's overwhelming, frightening! You wrap the slightest criticism in myrrh and balsam, rose and laurel. If I don't die of joy, I'll die of fear. What a bill of exchange you've just drawn on me for the future! You kissed me too hard, my noble and strong friend, I'm suffocating, I'm lost. You see, I've already lost my head. I'm blaming you. Ah! I'm mad, I'm drunk, my heart is overflowing, you've filled it with a feeling of gratitude that will never cease to answer and always fills it." - 1 page in-8°.
