I am sorry to hear that you have been ill [ ... ] Your husband write to me just before he was leaving London, to let him know when time came, if I would let him this house. I have decided nothing yet, & shall not I think be in a position to decide till the Spring. It is [ ... ] to hear that [ .... ] thinks your plan can be performed if certain conditions are fulfilled, which you are in a position to fulfill. [... ] It is evidently a musical Plan. Do you want my collaboration in the Libretto ? What is the idea underlying it ? For title, either "At feet of Shiva" or "At Shiva's Feet" would be good English. Some [ ... ]might prefer the one, and some other prefer "At Shiva's Feet". It is shorter, and the rythm is more balanced. As regards [ ... ] I agree with your remarks in the abstracts, but am puzzled to see later application. What is the question that I did [ ... ] but which you want to answer ? What is the question & what is the answer ? Perhaps the sand & waves of Scheveningen are necessary before I can solve the puzzle ? Or perhaps a [ ... ] chair of musical laughter, or perhaps after all, not among these things, but simply [... ] I don't know.

I have transleted the Ode which begins [persian text ] [ lacking ] who are going to set it to music & also to find singers if possible. [... ] But you are at a distance, & in this state of your health, I dare not ask you to undertake the strain. I have not seen any english translation of Hafiz that is satisfactory.
