Dear Cara
Thanks for your extract, which I return. I am amused at the editorial interpolations.
I am enjoying the sea extremely and find that, in spite of Sir J. Clark, 358 it is just what I wanted. The weather is glorious 359 -- the sea blue and calm -- and I have a delightful window from which I can see its "many-twinkling smile" 360 as I write. Love to all from
Your ever affectionate
Marian.
I think Froude ought to see your hint about his imitation of Carlyle. 361

Signature

Marian.
