Writes "I am enclosing according to promise some lines on Shakespeare for your [ter]centenary edition, and hope they will in a measure meet your needs. Some day I intend to try my hand at a Shakesperian tribute with better results I trust than this. Much luck to your venture," with postscript "I sent Reedy[?] your review & he wrote: that man has critical ability."
