Bereik en inhoud
4 Onslow Gardens. - Has only just read "The Bride of Dionysus", which George gave him, and found it 'delightful'. Had been reading the two odes about Theseus by Bacchylides the day before, inspired by a remark by 'W.P.K.' [William Paton Ker] in his "Art of Poetry", and so was pleased by the reminiscences of them in Bob's poem. It is an 'exercise', but the kind which can 'come from a poet'; wishes there were more like it. Finds Phaedra a little undeveloped as a character, but Theseus, Ariadne, Minos and Dionysus are 'great figures'. Has just received the Oxford Calendar with the news of his own nomination for the Chair of Poetry, but [H. W.] Garrod will be appointed since he will get the 'local vote'; when he reads Ker, [Walter] Raleigh and [A.C.] Bradley it is 'almost (not quite!) a delight to think [his] chances are very small!'. Adds a postscript saying that he sees that George is lecturing at Oxford.
