Summary
Writing to offer his belated cooperation in the publication of Miles's anthology The poets and the poetry of the century, explaining that "Tho' I do not like the sort of book which you are compiling, I do not wish to stand in the way of its completion"; inviting him to visit him in Yattendon to discuss the matter, or, in the event that he is unable to come, to give him the name of "anyone you cd ptopose, whom you know to be sufficiently acquainted with my work to be able to do the selection etc. ... I shd not object to conferring with your critic about the selection, if agreeable to him".
