Ferlinghetti was so impressed b y Ginsberg's performance, he immediately telegrammed him, referencing Ralph Waldo Emerson's response to Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass, "I greet you a t the beginning of a great career. When do I get the manuscript?" When the first edition of HOWL arrived from its British print.
