GE to William Blackwood, London, 25 March 1879
Text: Cross, III, 352-353.
I am so dissatisfied with [Theophrastus] on reading the revise, that I have proposed to suppress it in this original form, and regenerate it whenever -- if ever -- I recover the power to do so. You see the cruel weather has travelled after you. It makes one feel every grievance more grievously in some respects, though to me the sunshine is in one sense sadder.
