Description
Likes Ranee Brooke very much; "she is such a very good, kind, sincere simple creature"; "Faust" always bores her, but "Browning's 'Paracelsus' is obscure enough to make one commit suicide"; is reading Dante very slowly; is correcting proofs of 'Althea' and it seems "awfully bad"; will visit Miss Smyth for 2 days, then Lady Welby.
