Dear Dr. Prospero,
May I, with great humility, please present to you, as an embarrasingly inadequate small token of my extreme gratitude for the constant encouragement, extreme patience and inspired friendship (I hope!) which you have so generously employed to show me a Better Way, this self-portrait? I hope you will always remember me. (But I still wish I knew what my nose looks like! ha ha!)
Your grateful student,
Caliban
