Postmarked Egham. - Trevelyan is right that the sarcasm does not come across in a line of Minos [in Act I of "The Bride of Dionysus"]; asks if there could therefore be a new introduction to this speech. An accelerando at the 'Behold us' chorus makes it 'one of the best joints in the work; it is because connections 'are of paramount importance where the action is at rest' that he is so concerned about the one into Minos's speech. Suggests the logical movement he wants, which 'suits Minos's legal mind'. Tells Trevelyan to look him up before the concert, as he is catching a train after it.
