Scope and content

11, St Leonard's Terrace, Chelsea, S.W.3. - Thanks Trevelyan for sending the books; already knew many of the poems in "The Death of Man" but likes some of the new things very much; praises the 'largeness' of Trevelyan's way of writing and says it will endure. Also thinks the translation of [Sophocles'] "Ajax" is excellent, as far as he can tell. Has just published some Donne selections, which he has asked to be sent to Trevelyan. Asks if Trevelyan has returned from Paris. Gibbon is the greatest writer of the 18th century.
