Rangoon College, Burma. - Thanks Trevelyan for his translation of Lucretius: has compared it with one done by a colleague, Douglas (originally enclosed), and found it 'leagues better' in the more poetic and passionate parts. Generous of Trevelyan to take Luce's book seriously: he is the only person who has criticised it in detail. The reviews have missed Luce's main aim, line design. Discusses his general approach to poetry in detail; feels he is more interested in things than people, so doubts that he could succeed in writing dramatic or narrative poetry as Trevelyan suggests. Spent over two years working on a play, "Orestes on Areopagus", but without success. Will try some narrative, probably on some Buddhist subject. Is writing a prose book on Pagan [Bagan]. Expects to come to England for a year next March or April.
