Scope and Contents

"Dear Mrs Bland, Thank you so much for sending me your volume of poems: I have been turning over the leaves - tasting as one tastes wine - and am fascinated by the sonnets on pages 64, 65, and 96, 97 - but I am keeping the book as a whole for study in the Clumber woods next week. 'The last Envoy' seems a really beautiful piece of work. You see I am getting to know you, petal by petal, but I will not touch the longer poems just now..."
