Scope and content
Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - Quite a sign 'or rather a speciality of the times' to get up "Patience" in a style which pleases Elizabeth and can 'remind' Robert [of the original production?]. Glad that satisfactory domestic staff arrangements have now been made at the Shiffolds. Looking forward very much to Elizabeth's visit, and hoping to see Robert too. Has looked up [Lucian's] "Πλοἶον ἢ Εὐχαί" ["The Ship, or The Wishes"], and will talk to Robert again about it and about Plutarch's Alexander; will read Lucian's "Alexander Pseudomantis" again before he leaves Welcombe next summer.
