p. 9

think me too egotistical in speaking
thus at length and thus freely ab-
out myself and my hopes. I have
now a more rational hope than be-
fore of doing something - in poetry
and painting. About the first I have
said all there is to say in a letter;
about the latter I have no more room
to speak, but when next I see you
I have great things to tell you.
I have been introduced to Miss and
Miss Christina Rossetti. I met them
and Holman Hunt and George Mac-
Donald and Peter Cunningham and
Jenny Lind at the Gurneys'.

Hardy wishes you would look sharp
and answer his letter, and sends his
love.

Believe me, my dear friend, yours
affectionately,
Gerard M. Hopkins.

P.S. "Nothing so true as what you once
let fall", life is a preparation for Mods.
