Item 6 - Letter from Margaret Egerton to Logan Pearsall Smith

1 item

14 St Giles, Oxford. - Thanks Pearsall Smith for kindly sending him the poems [Trevelyan's "Bride of Dionysus"]; asks if he could let Trevelyan know how much she enjoyed them; mentions poems she particularly enjoys, then talks most about the "[Bride of] Dionysus" itself. Some of the images it evokes remind her of Greek vase paintings. There are many translations from the Greek, but 'here the poet has so thought himself in the past that he has made that dim far-off world to live again'. The work gives ga great many hopes' of what Trevelyan might do in the future.
