Evidence: | [LP having written to Lord Kingsborough in warm terms after he, having heard bad things of her, ordered her to destroy his letters, she sent him a poem pleading forgiveness. He replied] 'Madam, I am extremely honoured, by that Esteem and Friendship which you profess for me in your really fine Copy of Verses; yet, when I reflect on a late Letter of yours, which I still have by me, I cannot help thinking myself as unworthy of your Praise, as I was of your Threats'. |
