Gorringes, Downe, Kent. - His and his wife' thank both Trevelyan's for Bob's [translation of the Homeric] Hymn to Demeter ["From the Shiffolds"]; is glad the story 'seems to end happily'. The lines about flowers are 'delightful'. Philip was 'much pleased and excited yesterday' to get Bessie's 'beautiful printed letter', and had a good try at reading most of it; thinks he is on the 'very point of reading'. He will be the 'angel of the Lord (with a paper halo)' in a nativity play at school on Monday and know his part 'perfectly'; hopes he does not have stage fright.
