Robert Trevelyan : Epistle
Leonard Woolf to Robert Trevelyan, 8 January 1941: 'I want to say how much we enjoyed your Epistle. In these days of confused bitterness its form and content were both refreshing. Your translations and the two conversations were equally or even more refreshing. By a curious coincidence I had been reading Horace's satires after an interval of I don't know how many years. I never read the classics except in bed before I get up in the morning and I nearly always read Greek. But the other day I thought I would begin Horace again and began the Satires. I liked it better than I had expected for I had recollections of being bored by Horace's hexameters. Your translations are extraordinarily satisfactory and satisfying.'
