{"value"=>"<p>Reads in full: \"I dined at Natorp's yester eve: / And was it not a stab, / When he said 'She can't come. Don't grieve! / She dines with Mrs. Gab.'\" Contained within the body of a [?13 May 1885] letter to Nina Lehmann. At the end of the poem Browning has written \"Last Poem by R.B.,\" and though it is not at all clear that he meant this as a title, \"Last Poem\" is a title in use. Gustav Natorp made a portrait medallion of Browning which was finished in 1888. Browning \"depended on Natorp to look out for Pen's interests in the sale of his paintings, and the poet attended dinners at Natorp's because of his anxiety over Pen's career as a painter.\" See additional entry in series II for letter.</p>"}
