You say you\nenclosed Armstrong's letter but I xxxxxxx cdn't\nfind it. Not that it causes me much pain NOT\nto read Robt Armstrong's prose. Yr reply I have\nread with interest and enjoyment. I agree that\nlover judge \u201care not quite the same thing\u201d,\nthough perhaps judicious lovers and loving\njudges may be found (hey,Diogenes,lend me your\nlamp!).I note the reference to R.G. and apprec-\niate why it's better not to name him or quote\nhim on the \u201cHomeric happening\u201d. The letter is a\nmasterpiece of sly hints and velvet-gloved\nblows. Even yr last sentence.'\n\nFreddy has sent me a card from Looe and he\nrang last night when I wasn't here. He's re-\nturning on Wednesday evg (tomorrow) and says\nhe will phone. I'm sure Paul A enjoyed hearing\nthe latest episode. We'll see what we shall see,\nand I suppose I'll have to listen to Mary Hayes\non Ulsterian politics. I feel like W.B.Y. about\nhis/my \u201cfool-driven land\u201d. How goes the weather?\nYes,refrain from \u201cThe O'Rahilly\u201d.\n\nYes,May 8 in V and A is fine. I finish at\n\nx epistolary?\n","Type":"Text"}}]
