Message from the Chairman of the Keats-Shelley Memorial Association to King Charles III
Your Majesty
On behalf of the Keats-Shelley Memorial Association, I write to express our deepest condolences on the death of Her Majesty The Queen. Through her seven decades of unstinting public service, She was an inspiration not just to lovers of poetry but to the nation and to the world.
With profound respect,
Ivor Roberts
