"Thank you for a letter from Port Said... Isnt Marriage good, I think it is much the best he has written, I am glad you read Lycidas again... The P.M. has been quite ill with a boil on his shoulder, but is better again now... Doesnt it seem odd to you to think of us all doing the same old things and seeing the same people over and over again, when you are in much a different atmosphere."
