. . . I think I forgot to tell you that Mr. Maccarthy (my literal Rival
in Calderon) mentions in his Preface a masterly Critique on Calderon in
the Westminster 1851, which I take to be yours. {284} He says it, and
the included translations, are the best Commentary he has seen on the
subject.
I have ordered Eastwick's Gulistan: for I believe I shall potter out so
much Persian. The weak Apologue {285a} goes on (for I have not had time
for much here) and I find it difficult enough even with Jones's
Translation.
