Excerpt from Recollections of Dante Gabriel Rossetti "That, " he said, "will be for you some day to decide." This was the first hint of any intention upon my part of publishing the letters he had written to me, indeed, this was the first moment at which I had conceived the idea of doing so. Nothing further on the subject was said down to the morning of the Thursday preceding the Sunday on which he died, when we talked together for the last time on subjects of general interest, - subsequent interviews being concerned wholly with solicitous inquiries upon my part, in common with other anxious friends, as to the nature of his sufferings, and the briefest answers from him. "How long have we been friends?" he said. I replied, between three and four years from my first corresponding with him. "And how long did we correspond?" "Three years, nearly." "What numbers of my letters you must possess! They may perhaps even yet be useful to you." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
