Rather than supplying William Wordsworth with an excuse in response to “Invitation into Cumberland”, Charles Lamb justifies the city of London. London is the city he has lived in his whole life, and he holds the city very dear to his heart.

Lamb is very adamant about portraying the glories of living in the city of London, and he desires for Wordsworth to understand why and uses rhetorical questions in order to try to convey his message. Lamb begins politely with an apologetic tone used to display the intent of his letter, used as a means to prepare Wordsworth for not only his justification of the city of London, but also as a means to transition into a sort of tearing apart of the romantics and their lives in the country.
