| Content Summary: |
She thanks him again for remembering them among the friends rejoicing as he progresses to recovery. His telegram cheered them yesterday afternoon. He does not realise how his genius enhances their spiritual lives with beautiful creations, and their debt to one who makes Shakespeare's works live. She praises his ability to carry the whole of an ill-made play more than a master role in a great classic. She hopes he will not laugh, but she can write the things she cannot say in the crowd on stage after the play. |
