Scope and content
Northlands, Englefield Green, Surrey. - Thanks Trevelyan for the ensemble: thinks that it can be made very fine, and not resemble the 'game of shouting proverbs' which he describes. Thinks Trevelyan has the characters very distinct, but he cannot adopt the third reading of Phaedra's part and hopes Trevelyan does not prefer it, as certain phrases will sound prosaic. Hopes his proposals for the third act [see 7/8] are not too upsetting.
