Dearest Sylvia,

Your letter is rather confusing about the lec-
tures. Thank you for offering to take one of the
engagements if I should be busy (I adore you for
thinking of that) but I hope it will not be necess-
ary.

I have accepted Hammersmith. Do I take your
letter to mean that we should each do a course -
I at St. Albans and you at Hammersmith? If you
think this is a good idea I will ask John Skipp.
I am not sure that our finances would compel you
to do that, though, and guide-lecturing is a bore.
Tell me more clearly what you mean. I'm sorry to
be so dense.

Your suggestions about reviewing are all congen-
ial to me but not many books are sent to Art News
and Review, at present, and certainly neither of
those you mention have gone to Gainsborough. I
wish they had. The publishers have not accepted
the paper wholeheartedly yet, you see.

What very good news about your cliff painting.
I am glad St. Nicholas is being so useful. You sh-
ould have some more news of it soon - I look for-
ward to your next letter describing your progress.
Here is a poem - quite a slight one, I admit - about
it:

Today when the clouds are exact
Like Rene Magritte weather
I think of you my loving
Double and double-dealer
At the game of likeness
On the shore where formerly
I was your foreground figure
