Bereik en inhoud
Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Thanks Robert and 'dear Bessie' for their letters. Has put back [Trollope's?] "Warden". Bessie's 'account of Paul's "reading" is delightful'. Is reading "Sisyphus" slowly in the evening, as is his habit; has read through the first act, twice, as on first sight he did not realise how much was rhymed. Praises the 'rhyming' and plot highly; parts are very Aristophanic. Looks forward to reading the rest of the poem. Thanks Robert for 'the passage about "requisition"' [from a dictionary?]; strange that Sir George was 'at a loss for a word which... does not exist'. Hopes that they are eating the hare. Adds in a postscript that he agrees with Robert about [William? see also 12/149] Everett's 'capacity for scholarship: there was 'no scholarship in America when he was educated there', he came to Cambridge late, and was 'occupied in other interests'.
