Funchal (Madeira), February 20 th , 1844.

To the Rev. Mason Neale, Member of Ihe Cambridge Camden Society.

The Camden Society having done me the unsolicited and unmerited honour of placing my name among its honorary members, I feel not only authorized, but conscientiously obliged to speak out what I inwardly think of its efforts and object : and I am happy to be able to do so, in addressing myself, not only to one of its most influential members, but to one for whom I feel a most lively sympathy, on account of his talent, science, courage , and indeed , of every thing except what the Church, which I believe to be infallible , reproves in him.

1 Cette lettre a été écrite en anglais, et ne se rapporte qu'à des sujets intimement liés à la vie religieuse et pour ainsi dire domestique de l'Angleterre : elle ne saurait intéresser que les personnes très au courant de la langue et des mœurs anglaises. On a donc cru inutile de la traduire.
