Scope and content
Postmarked Vend[rell]. - Jokingly suggests, quoting from "The Bride of Dionysus", that the postcard shows 'the Masterwork of Athenian Daedalus. Has successfully remodelled Phaedra's big scene and should be able to score it today; will then return to Act II and score the 'hitherto omitted Hecate passage' to make it foreshadow this.
