Scope and content
Should have thanked Bessie before for the Thibauds [?]: has been ill with the flu, unable to visit Ricketts, and largely confined to his room. Has therefore heard nothing of how the opera went at Edinburgh [Donald Tovey's "The Bride of Dionysus", with libretto by R.C. Trevelyan], so would be glad to hear where it had been well reviewed, and whether it used reproductions of Ricketts' designs. Asks if she has seen his letter in the "Nation" defending his book ["Armour for Aphrodite"?; this seems to be selling better than his previous books. Sends love to the Trevelyans, including Julian, in which Marie would join were she not in Paris again.
