My dearest Sylvia,

This is just like 'old times' - writing to you from my room again. I do not think that nostalgia is satisfied by this, however, as, at present, I only feel your absence. It is fine weather today so I hope you can lie in the garden and relax and I do hope that life at the Rectory will be more calm now. It is only now that, looking back, I fully realise the tension of the second week. I love you; I wish it had been easier for you. On the other hand I couldn't have missed a minute of it, being with you.

I am writing this hastily; it is the lover's equivalent of a formal note of thanks after a holiday, a visit. Thank you so much for having me, and in particular, for painting me. Dandylion feels very proud, head-and-shoulders above the other lions. How much I adore you and I feel, as one always does, that there is so much I could have said but, somehow, didn't. All that is clear is my happiness and I hope yours too.

A longer letter will follow shortly. But meanwhile, thank you and i love you, love you, love you.

Lawrence

My dearest Sylvia,

This is just like 'old times' - writing you from my room again. I do not think that nostalgia is satisfied by this, however, as at present, I only feel your absence. It is fire weather today so i hope you can lie in the garden and relax and i do hope that life at the Rectory will be more calm now. It is only now that, looking back, I fully realise the tension of the second week. I love you; I wish it had been easier for you. On the other hand I wouldn't have missed a minute of it, being with you.
