Fourways, Gomshall, Surrey. - 'Delightful' to hear from Bobby again and get his 'charming book of poems' [this year's "From the Shiffolds"]. Is still 'between the shafts' [as Secretary of State for India and Burma]: it is a 'fascinating but exhausting job' and he often works from 7.30 in the morning until midnight; if he can 'pull anything out of the bag about India it will be worth it'. The job of a cabinet minister is 'to reconcile the irreconcilable, solve the insoluble & generally to achieve the impossible!'. Emmeline joins with him in 'love and greetings' to Bobby and his 'circle. Adds a postscript saying that he likes the poem "Old Aeschylus" best, and 'feel[s] like that about modern music'.
