Scope and content

Horsham - HJR has just received a letter from Professor Huschke [Immanuel Gottlieb Huschke] of Rostock, who is about to undertake an edition of Maurus Terentianus. HJR has been hoping to hear from Augustus Hare: 'Will you ask him what he says in reply to my proposal as to Deighton - and whether he is making any preparations? I do wish to bring out a first No. in the present year'. HJR has had offerings from two or three contributors: 'Wordsworth has offered a translation of Virgil - a little perhaps out of our way - but such an offering cd. not be refused'.
