Some of Poes epistolary effusions, on theother
hand, leave a bad taste in the mouth. Yetthe title may have given him the idea. Aunt
has just been here and has read this letter I am writing.
Enough and to spare has been written upon
certainaspects of his moral life.
And elsewhere:Jen arrive a cette conclusion, quil
ne faut jamais chercher lebonheur. I have not seen thiswork, but I understand it has
little in common with Poes story.
From the first to the last of his writings is
revealed littlechange in the texture of his mind. You know he is the man who looks
so like poor father.
From the first to the last of his writings is

of soil; and so much for Isabellesnomadism.
For the Russianpaterfamilias is not like ours. You
know he is the man who looks so like poor father. Within, they do not look as if
they were everintended to be permanently occupied.
Aunt took me to see the grave this
afternoon.
Then she went up to the nursery andcame down again
and sent some of the servants for Mrs. But I told her she was greedy, which indeed
shealways was. So I ran along the drive and upthe steps and into the house, but did
not see either Mrs.
Then she went up to the nursery andcame down again
and sent some of the servants for Mrs. Nothing is more true if by simpleshe means
limpid, homogeneous. There is a more general agreement that Poe was right as regards
thelength of his tales. Quand mon coeur souffrait, il commençait à
vivre.
Fortescue oranyone else in the house, although I
heard the servants below. There may be some truth in the general argument. I cannot
but think that this wholeaspect of Poes literary career has been wrongly
interpreted.
Weisss account of thatvisit to the
Hermitage?
And among hisdeficiencies is certainly to be
reckoned a total lack of humour.
There is a more general agreement that Poe was
right as regards thelength of his tales. Monsieur Hennequin has insisted upon the
originality of Poe.
And each time, let us hope, we shall attain a
nearer approximation toverity. Yetthe title may have given him the idea. He had a
classic senseof analysis, form and measure.
