Yeats writes, in full, 'I send you that review and it is the last I shall ever write. I haven't that gift, my writings have to germinate out of each other. I spent about ten days on the thing and its not worth the trouble. It is something else altogether dressed out to look like a review'. One small, neat tear to the right edge of the central fold, not affecting the text or signature, otherwise VG Derek Verschoyle (1911-1973) English publisher and literary editor of The Spectator from 1932-39.
