L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|        19 Decr 1808
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|        Dear Cumberland
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|        I am very much obliged by your kind ardour in my cause &
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|        should immediately Engage in reviving my former pursuits of
L64.Cumberland12'08; E769|        printing if I had not now so

 
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        long been turned out of the old channel into a new one that it is
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        impossible for me to return to it without destroying my present
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        course New Vanities or rather new pleasures occupy my thoughts
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        New profits seem to arise before me so tempting that I have
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        already involved myself in engagements that preclude all
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        possibility of promising any thing. I have however the
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        satisfaction to inform you that I have Myself begun to print an
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        account of my various Inventions in Art <for> which I have
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        procured a Publisher & am determind to pursue the plan of
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        publishing what I may get printed without disarranging my time
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        which in future must <alone> be devoted to Designing & Painting
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        [alone] when I have got my Work printed I will send it
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        you first of any body in the mean time believe me to be
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        Your Sincere friend

 
L64.Cumberland12'08; E770|        WILL BLAKE
