TO THE LORD CHANCELLOR

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

EARL OF SELBORNE.

MY DEAR SELBORNE,
To you, the honoured Chancellor of our own day, I dedicate this
dramatic memorial of your great predecessor;--which, altho' not
intended in its present form to meet the exigencies of our modern
theatre, has nevertheless--for so you have assured me--won your
approbation.

Ever yours,

TENNYSON.
