Dearest Sylvia,
How can i thank you enough for Les Cheveux d'Hetty. It is enchanting and superb. If I were a monarch the postman who brought this illuminated manuscript without bending it would be knighted. Oh it is beautiful: it is beside me on the table as I write. The drawing and colour of the images is delightful and so, so is the poem. (It is a very subtle compliment to Hetty that you have used French words she knew.) The music and the verbal images are lovely. This picture-poem is now one of my most treasured possessions.
I am glad to hear that you have found suitable frames for your still-life triptych and some others, too. And I am made very happy by the news that you have bought a Worcester Cup and saucer for your Hetty. When she uses it you will see her raising her tri-colour veils (in honour of your French poem) to sip tea from it.
Was the Dentist too clumsy? I hope that this time he was gentle and did not hurt you.
One of the applicants for the Tate jobs is Ronald Alley (spelling?) whom I met at the T.G. when he was temporarily doing the Assistant Keeper job there. So I think he may have a good chance of getting the post permanently. However, you never know and we shall see (as people are always saying).
Lion is going to spend his Sunday at Blackheath, getting ready

How can I thank you enough for Les Cheveux d'Hetty. It is
enchanting and superb. If I were a monarch the postman who
brought this illuminated manuscript without bending it would be
knighted. Oh it is beautiful: it is beside me on the table as
I write. The drawing and color of the images is delightful
and so, so is the poem. (It is a very subtle complement to
Hetty that you have used French words she knew.) The music
and the verbal images are lovely. This picture-poem is now
one of my most treasured possessions.

I am glad to hear that you have found suitable frames for
your still-life triptych and some others, too. And I am made
very happy by the news that you have bought a Worcester Cup
and saucer for your Hetty. When she uses it you will see
her raising her tri-colour veils (in honour of your French
poem) to sip tea from it.

Was the Dentist too clumsy? I hope that this time he was
gentle and did not hurt you.

One of the applicants for the Tate jobs is Ronald Alley (spell-
ing?) whom I met at the T.G. when he was temperarily doing the
Assistant Keeper job there. So I think he may have a good
chance of getting the post permanently. However, you never
know and we shall see (as people are always saying).

Dearest Sylvia!

How can I thank you enough for Les Cheveux d'Betty. It is enchanting and superb. If I were a monarch the postman who brought this illuminated manuscript without bending it would be knighted. Oh it is beautiful; it is beside me on the table as I write. The drawing and color of the images is delightful and so, so is the poem. (It is a very subtle compliment to Betty that you have used French words she knew.) The music and the verbal images are lovely. This picture-poem is now one of my most treasured possessions.

I am glad to hear that you have found suitable frames for your still-life triptych and some others, etc. And I am made very happy by the news that you have bought a Worcester Cup and saucer for your Betty. When she uses it you will see her raising her tri-colour veils (in honour of your French poem) to sip tea from it.

Was the Dentist too clumsy? I hope that this time he was gentle and did not hurt you.
