Scope and content

Beginning of letter missing. Translation of Catullus 4 ['Phaselus ille...', published as The Schooner from Catullus in Polyphemus and Other Poems, 1901]. Comments that if he could 'write poems of [his] own as good as the original of that, [he] should not do badly'. Asks her to tell G[eorge] that he will probably not be at Ravello later than the end of February; supposes George 'would scarcely be back from Egypt by then', and they would probably meet around Florence, though George will know his own movements better later.
