Scope and content
Woodthorpe, The Thrupp, Nr. Stroud, Glos. - Good of Trevelyan to send his poems ["Aftermath"]; knew some already, but it is good to have them together with 'such a splendid increment'. Finds that the keynote is 'sincerity'. Is 'usually behind the times' and has only just got hold of Trevelyan's brother [George]'s essays ["Clio, A Muse"/ "The Recreations of a Historian"] on loan from a friend; knows of no other similar collection offering such 'sustained interest'. The sentence in tribute to [Arthur Woolgar] Verrall made him 'weep'.
