Dearest Michelangelo,
It is with most sincere gratitude that I send this letter to you. I would, first off, like to immensely thank you for praising my works at the Florence Babtistery. I would like to especially thank you for coining the name "Gates of Paradise." I cannot thank you enough. This recognition has brought me great success, and without your comments, I would not be where I am today. I am also writing this letter to you to express to you just how much I admire what you have done at the Sistine Chapel.
