By the way, you may see in the one poem I sent off this morning what I have started to learn from Ransom on Shakespeare's language in Sewanee Review. Altogether crude is the experiment of mine I admit but all intention is there: I have juxtaposed (18th jargon, 'Phaelius', "grot" and the (18 it conception of one with the last, rather harsh rhythm of the (20th ballad though here I've been rather eclectic, I'm afraid. Still it's my muse's fault if I rush some as on poems because she urged me not to neglect my Hogarth prose about.

Michael's reorganizing of the table reminds me of an alleged act of Rimbaud's, who when his mother refused to hire a piano to give him music lessons, carved the top of the Rimbaud's table to piano shape. In case you are thinking of coming to Longon one day here is some advice which Verlaine gave to a friend after his first visit here. 'One one says 'if you please, but merely please.' Well, that's sound but he goes on "The word 'stop' is only used on boats, as to cabmen you say 'much abliged'. The workd 'beefsteak' does not exist and it is an appalling indecency to say "water closet" instad of W.C. Once when Verlaine wanted a wash he said, in English: 'Excuse me, I have got plenty of dust.' When we visited the N.G. he disliked Turner and Hogarth. I must look up the reasons for this lattertaste.

Thank you for sending me Sewanee. And I will elaborate the proverb in my next letter but the book is not by me just at present. (It's upstairr.)

I was tempted to date this letter the 9th but if I had done so I claned probably have appeared a day early at Pott but it is wonderful to think there are only ten days before we meet. I adore you, Sylvia, and just now as I thought of the diminishing wedge of days between us, I got a tiny unmistakable sensation in my tummy, excitement, apprehension, desire. I love you.

By the way, you may see in the Owl Poem I sent off this
morning what I have started to learn from Ransom on Shake-
speare's language in Genovee Review. Altogether crude is the
experiment of mine I admit but the intention is there: I have
juxtaposed (18th jargon, 'Phoebus,' 'grot,' and the (18th concep-
tion of owl with the fast, rather harsh rhythm of the (20th
ballad though here I've been rather eclectic, I'm afraid.
Still it's my muse's fault if I rush some of our poems be-
cause she urged me not to neglect my prose about Hogarth.

Michael's 'reorganising' of the table reminds me

By the way, you may see in the one poem I sent off this morning what I have started to learn from Ransom on Glade - Speare's language in Sewanee Review. Altogether wide is the experiment of mine, I admit, but the intention is there: I have juxtaposed (18th jargon "Phaebius', 'grot', and the (18th conception of one with the part, rather worst rhythm of life (20th ballad though here I've been rather eclectic, I'm afraid. Still it's my muse's fault if I rush some of our poems because she urged me not to neglect my prose about Morzart.

Michael's 'organising' of the table reminds me of an alleged act of Rembrandt's, when his mother refused to hire a piano to give him music lessons, carved the top of Mrs. Rembrandt's table to piano shape. In case you are thinking of coming to London one day, here is some advice which Verbaine gave to a friend after his first visit here. One never says 'if you please' but merely 'please'. Well, that's sound, but he goes on 'the word 'stop' is only used on boats, or to cabmen you say 'much abliged'. The word 'beefsteak' does not exist and it is an appalling indecency to say "water closet" instead of 'W.C.' Once when Vervaine wanted to wash he said, in English: "Excuse me, I have got plenty of dust!" When he visited the N.G. he Turner and Mozart. I must work up the reason for this latter taste.
