My Darling

It was a delight getting two letters — or really three — from you this morning. — Yes, it seems an age till my visit, but more than half the time since my last is over now. — I am much amused by your reeling in the shop and uttering republican sentiments — no wonder they thought the worst. You were lucky not to be arrested as an Anarchist. My address Tuesday night and Wed. morning is

Rozeldene, Hindhead, Haslemere.

I don’t leave here till midday Tuesday, so you can write here tomorrow. I don’t think you ought to send more than one letter to Hindhead. I come up to London Wed. afternoon and shall sleep at More’s Garden if you can’t have me — put “3 More’s Garden”, not c/o A.L. Dakyns, it will probably answer better. Mrs Whitehead doesn’t want you to write to mea at Carlyle Square, on account of a long business about servants. I shall call at More’s Garden in any case before my Comee. Wed., and if you can’t have me Wed. night I shall dine with the Whiteheads. My Comee. will be over by 7.

If Goldie won’t go early enough Thursday, I don’t think it matters at all his seeing me. He is very discreet — and it won’t matter if he guesses something. Let me know as soon as you can about Wed. and Thursday.

There seems nothing whatever to be done for Jourdain — it is heartrending. His work is just not good enough to make it possible to recommend him whole-heartedly. I think Miss Stawell might be very good for Karin, only I don’t see how they are to be brought together. And I doubt if Miss S. knows enough of philosophy to be technically a help.

Dearest, I am so glad of what you say about balance and being less froissée with people. Yes, I think it comes of being at rest inside. And the courage to go only for what is good — we give it to each other, by caring for it together. It is so wonderful how our love multiplies the good things we share, and destroys the other things.

Whitehead and North have been here separately this morning — Waterlow is coming for a walk, and Goldie to dinner. But I am getting some work fitted into the crannies and cracks, and getting on all right. — You will have a wet journey to Broughton today, and the house will look very depressing. I hope you are not minding your time at Oxford. Tomorrow I shall think of you resting at Peppard. Goodbye my dearest Life. I am longing for you. I hope Goldie won’t stay too long. I count the moments — or I would if I knew when it would be. Darling all my heart is with you.

Yours utterly
B.
