The Master's Lodge, Trinity College, Cambridge. - Good of Bob to send [his translation of Sophocles'] "Oedipus C" ["at Colonus"], which he is reading with particular 'delight and interest' as he has never done so before, either in Greek or English. Janet is also looking forward to reading it, and is 'the best Grecian of us two'. Bob is 'certainly having a great harvest' in his old age, like Sophocles; he himself is 'more played out as a history writer' than Bob is as a poet.
