Scope and content
Worplesdon Rectory, Guildford (though the heading also reads 'c/o of Donald at present). - Thanks the Trevelyans for their welcome of him at their house, which he will always remember affectionately. Would like to send her husband his own 'almost worthless verses', and is 'procuring copies of his book on [Thomas] Gray'; Don [Donald Tovey] has ordered the verses at Guildford. Would send love to 'his Imperial Majesty' [Paul Trevelyan], but fears he is 'under the royal displeasure for attempting to sing "Fiddle-de-dee" in lieu of the only authorized performance'.
