I have sent through my publishers a vol. of my essays on Poetry & Poets, containing an essay on your own work,
reprinted with additions from one I wrote some years ago—which I have been sorry
not to see mentioned in the volumes of Dr Bucke and
John Burroughs—for I understand that you, & Mr.
Burroughs had approved of it & (as you know) I have long been a grateful &
warm admirer. Please let me have a line, if you are well enough, as I hope may be
the case, to write. I welcome the vol. of young Mr. Rhys, & trust it will make you
well known among us.

If you should come to England, I hope you will not forget that you would find a warm welcome in our house.
Ever yours with affectionate respect, Roden Noel P.S. I hope you may have seen & cared for some of my own work in poetry. I
believe I sent you an early & immature volume, but not hearing from you did not send
later, & stronger work.
