My dear John, It is with great pleasure that I hear of your
graduation this year. It is a fine thing to have so
successfully finished your college course.

April 3, 2009. 2 Linh Lang, Ba Đinh, Hanoi My dear Nguyen Thanh Hung, Let me be among the first to congratulate you on
your engagement to Miss Thu Hien. I have not
met her but I know that to reach your high ideals
she must indeed be a wonderful girl. I hope I may
soon have the pleasure of meeting her. Sincerely yours,
that you will learn to love us for our own sake as
well as for Hai Anh's. Sincerely yours, Nguyen Duc Thi Thu Dinh.

Các bạn hãy quan sát bức thư ấy ở phần dưới đây: Dear Miss Kelly: We had the pleasure, pain I might better call it, of
seeing you last night in the new play. It was a most
consummate piece of acting, but what a task for
you to undergo! At a time when your heart is sore
from real sorrow it has given rise to a train of
thinking, which I cannot suppress. Would to God you were released from this way of
life; that you could bring your mind to consent to
take your lot with us, and throw off forever the
whole burden of your profession. I neither expect
nor wish you to take notice of this which I am
writing, in your present over occupied and hurried
state but to think of it at your leisure.



It is impossible that I should ever think of molesting
you with idle importunity and prosecution after your
mind [is] once firmly spoken but happier, far
happier, could I have leave to hope a time might
come, when our friends might be your friends; our
interests yours; our book knowledge, if in that
inconsiderable particular we have any like
advantage, might impart something to you, which
you would every day have it in your power ten
thousand fold to repay by the added cheerfulness
and joy which you could not fail to bring as a dowry
into whatever family should have the honor and
happiness of receiving you, the most welcome
accession that could be made to it. In haste, but with entire respect and deepest
affection, I subscribe myself. C. Lamb.
