The author's profound love for nature permeates the verse, in which she finds solace and inspiration. Lynd's deep emotional response to the natural world powerfully captures the beauty of the English countryside. Written in the early 20th century, it reflects the Georgian literary era's fascination with rural life and the exploration of themes such as love, loss, and the human condition. The verses are characterized by vivid imagery, and thoughtful reflection, and will resonate with readers who appreciate the beauty of nature and the power of words.

8pp., 12mo. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. An interesting letter, written four months before the death of her husband. She begins: 'Dearest Sylvia - | I meant to write to you last month because I am one of those tiresome people who remember anniversaries & it was in August that you both came down to the Windermere to see us. But in August Frederick had a severe heart-attack - the worst he has had - and anniversaries & everthing else were forgotten.' She describes the circumstances and the'immediate result', as well as the changes which have had to be made as a result of his illness. Among the couple's occasional visitors has been 'I. A. Richards of Basic English'. She speculates on the effect of writing 'Canadian books' on his health. She turns to lighter matters, including newspaper and magazine formats, and the books with which she emerges from the eaves of their house. 'I hope the result of this torrent of words will be a long chatter letter from you telling us about yourselves & others. We still miss Walpole [the novelist Hugh Walpole, who had died in 1941] - how much more must he be misseed by those who saw him often.'.…

2pp., 4to. In good condition, on lightly-aged paper. One minor manuscript emendation (see below). Dated at the head 'March 3rd. 1921' and addressed to 'Madam'. Part of the letter was published - lacking the first sentence and all of the second page, and with the name 'Clonmult' omitted - in the second volume of the 'News Letter of the Friends of Irish Freedom, National Bureau of Information, Washington', where it was preceded by: 'The following is the story of an Irish mother, who relates, in a letter received by a lady resident in England, how she was called to a military barracks in Ireland to identify her dead son:' The letter begins: 'Madam, | I beg to acknowledge with grateful thanks the sum of £1. I am one of the mothers of the boys who was killed at Clonmult on February 20th., [sic] He [amended in manuscript from 'he'] was only 19 years old, and as fine a young man as you would wish to see, and I his mother that saw him only three weeks previous to his death when I went up to Cork barracks to identify him I really at first could only recognise his hair - Oh! my goodness what a butchery they gave those 12 young men. To my dying day I wont [sic] forget the sight that met my eyes when that dead house door was opened, to see all those fine young men thrown like dogs on the floor labeled "on H.M.S." and each one having a number, and their poor feet tied with ropes. My poor boy was just inside the door, his poor face all broke up, his eyes were broke in his head, his mouth broke and twisted, and all his teeth in his mouth, one arm completely cut off, and not one inch of his poor body but bayonet wounds, you could easily see they were bayonet wounds as ll his coat and pants were cut through, and one great big hole just up at his neck like as if they drove the bayonet to the butt and turned it round'. Here the published extract ends, but the author goes on to describe how her husband has been '12 months idle the end of this month, he is gone to work yesterday thank God', and that her '4 little children' have been 'often hungry and would be worse only I went out working myself to try and keep the home over us, and anywhere that poor boy tried to get employment the police prevented him, also his father, so thank God he is at rest'. She asserts that she 'could write a book on the way I and my family are persecuted by police and military during the past 18 months, torn out of bed at all hours of the night, my house and place all upset.' From the Dryhurst/Lynd papers.…

2pp., 12mo. On bifiolium of ruled paper, with 'HIERATICA' watermark of 'J. S. & Co.' From the Lynd archive, and judging from the handwriting a youthful effort, almost-certainly dating from before Sylvia Dryhurst's marriage to Robert Lynd in 1909. In fair condition, on aged paper. In seven stanzas, the first three giving a taste of an amusing and unusual jeu d'esprit and excellent piece of Edwardian social history: '1) By some devil surely sent | Sandal hunting off I went, | And my footsteps never slowed | Till I reached the Finchley Road. | Chorus: (with fervour) Damn them ! | Damn them ! great & small ! | Damn each one & damn them all ! ! ! ! | 2) Lilley & Skinner, FitzJohn's Co. | Green & Edwards on we go - | Woodcock's, Barnes's hopefully | Then returning dolefully. | Chorus: (with more fervour) | 3) Asking "5" they gave me "4", | Or "sold out", they had no more, | But a "2" they could supply | New lot coming - by & bye ! | Chorus: (more fervent still !)'. After yet more fruitless hunting, in the sixth stanza the narrator exclaims: 'Sandals all may go for me | To the bottom of the sea | (That's politer than the D -)'. The poem ends with a recitation of the chorus 'with concentrated venom'. …
