| Content Summary: |
What does Irving say to a play founded on 'Le Roi S'Amuse' - not a translation but a play in which the three main characters stand in the same relation as in Victor Hugo's play? 'The Fool's Revenge' is so delicately written that he puts it out of the question. |

| Notes: |
'The Fool's Revenge', 1859, was by Tom Taylor (see also Letter 1321). The paper is watermarked 1880. |
