To the Most Esteemed Publishers of Primum &c.,

Good morrow to you in America and abroad. It pleases me to write in to a magazine I find utterly charming in its antiquated philosophy and bold rabble-rousing spirit and truly providential in its moral rectitude. Much like you I divest much of my efforts into rehabilitating the soddy state of antiquarian interests and the foppery that passes for ideas of worth to-day. To this point, I would fain your periodic readers would be replenished in such Delight were you to devote an issue entirely to those very traditions, most lawful in their declamation, that precede and eclipse your own modern era; such an endeavor would not fail to elicit pandemic and, indeed, primeval Joy wedded with the most fruitful Instruction whence we may please God.

Beyond this, I only pray to commend and honour the studied practice of ancient works; one gains Discipline beyond one’s years in such matters, however, humbly requesting that the scrivener named Morgan, if it please him, to refrain from his rough-shod lyrics reminiscent of my own imping pen, perchance to pursue his particular omnium-gatherum style of the prosaic essay. In God’s Name, Cheers and Adieu.
