Scope and content
Postmarked Staines. - Does not want to omit Minos's reference to the treaty [in Act I of "The Bride of Dionysus"], as he should lose his temper with 'the utmost paraphernalia of reasonableness'; would like to lose a few words and gives his preferred reading. Vaguely remembers a line Trevelyan was doubtful about; does not mind it but will accept any alternative which is not rhythmically too difficult.

Note
Postmarked with a later time than 7/117, sent on the same day.
Pencil notes on the address side of the card seem to be a draft by Trevelyan of Minos's lines about the Labyrinth at the end of Act I.
