734
MS: Mr. Gordon N. Ray.
The Priory, | 21, North Bank, | Regents Park.
My dear M. Roche
On the other page I have indicated extracts which you can choose from. It has not been an easy task to find them for I had but a hazy idea of their purpose.
Respecting Moxon nothing can be done except writing to Tennyson and asking his permission. 735 Browning's I fancy you could get from Chapman & Hall who publish all his poems.
Kind regards to Mad. Roche.
Ever yours truly
G. H. Lewes.
Life of Goethe 2d edition p. 106 "Gottfried von Berlichingen surnamed of the Iron Hand." to p. 111 close of the page "can remember." p. 380 (Goethe and Schiller) "There are few nobler" to p. 383 "Kant and the Grecian Sages" --
G. Eliot. Mill on the Floss
Vol. I p. 215 (chap. XII) "In order to see" to p. 222 end of first paragraph "insolvent."
Romola
From the Epilogue vol. III p. 288 "The other two figures" -- to the close of p. 292.
Felix Holt. Description of England in the opening chapter of vol. I.
I'm sorry to say I can't lend the books; but you will find them at Mudie's or the London Library.
