I waited until the queue to get off the boat had subsided - you rem-ember last year! - and get off in two or 3 minutes. And I am now on the quay waiting to start for Paris. On my right the now empty boat and such a view as you nearly drew last year - on my left numer-ous iron balconies & shutters that are really quite pretty and do much to save the facades from being entirely monotonous or barred. Numerous French sea-side holiday makers in extravagent slip-overs, shoes, and hats, shuffling along & gaping at the train and, just a second ago, a troop of tiny children following a nun.
Really I think there are as many American travellers as English or French put together but happily hardly any Canadians - Hetty & I have only id-entified two as positively Canadian. Some of the English that are travelling are really shameful - & would not look out of place visit-ing and Arts Council provincial exhibition. I feel rising in me, counter to the mythological connotations of travel which I always feel with pleasure, strong feeling of social caricature. 3 young men talking for nearly an hour about English football teams, their chances, the weather & their grounds, &c. And so the landscapes shaped by le Natre come nearer.
I am not definitely writing a Traveller's Alphabet - not at all like the unfinished Martyr's one.
It is curious to anyone except you or me, that though I am now in a French setting I keep thinking, constantly, of English news - of Pett landscapes & the paintings you are making of them. The Louvre awaits me but what I most want news of is your paintings. of my superb painter - I love you. I had a last look at your pic-tures this morning & they sent me off full of necionary colours & images.
The train lurches. We are off. Again, my dearest beauty, Minerva, Rose, I love you, I love you Lawrence
