  Dear Sirs:

By your note of 18th, from New York, just received, I find that Mr. Edmund Routledge, editor, would, (I quote,) like to keep & use an original three-page poem sent him from me, but demurs to my first-asked price—that he directs you to offer me 10 pounds, which you can send me, $50: in gold—& that, (the terms being settled,) he will advertise it very largely.

I accept the terms offered—$50: in gold—and you can   forw'd me the amount as soon as convenient. I repeat that I distinctly reserve the right of printing the piece in a future edition of my poems.

Sending best wishes & respects to editor & publishers, I remain, Walt Whitman
