My Lord On Wednesday M r Nepean signified to me your Lordship's commands.

In obedience to your Lordship's commands signified to me on Wednesday by M r Nepean, I held myself in readiness to receive the honour of a visit from your Lordship yesterday. Presuming your Lordship to have been prevented by more important business, I now take the liberty of walking in hope of taking your Lordship's commands for some future day. I am, with all respect my Lord Your Lordship's most obedient Servant Jeremy Bentham
