I Tatti, Settignano, Florence. - Thanks for her appreciation of his tribute to [Carlo] Placci, though he says "Horizon" cut much of it out ["A Latin Profile", "Horizon", June 1946, pp. 385-399]. As an undergraduate, people expected him to become a novelist, but he feels the marshalling of detail in narrative would have been difficult for him. Wishes the Trevelyans could visit again. He has much enjoyed Robert's translations of Virgil's "Bucolics" ["Eclogues"] and "Georgics", as well as his introductions and notes.
