Dear Ezra Pound,

It was so very kind of you to write to me as you have done. I am deeply grateful and feel myself honoured far beyond my deserts.

As I read the papers you sent me some words of
Napoleon came to mind: " Adversity was lacking to my
career. To-day men can judge me naked as I am. " It
seems to me that all the paths of righeousness lead to
the same goal. That your tremendous poetry will live
for ever by itself and without any adventitious support
is of course certain; but those who rejoice in it in
days as yet far away will suffer a deeper wounding
of the heart, and so will know a higher gratitude,
because you gave not only all your genius, but also
yourself.

It struck me, as I read your letters, that only

miracles are rational. How is one to account for
such poetry as yours except by believing that genius
comes from beyond our world, as a kind of virgin birth.
It was said of Wordsworth that at moments an angel
snatched the pen out of his hand. The sires of genius,
it seems to me, as it seemed to the Greeks and, indeed
to all the earlier peoples, inhabit another world
than this one. How else to explain poets and musicians
and artists who, opening the heavens, make us partners
in their eternity? But the price seems always to be the
same -- suffering, suffering.

I was indeed wrong about Roosevelt and I shall
not cease to be sorry that I spent so much time and labour
on his praise. But I ask myself: Did he in fact know
what he was doing? My experience of the politicians
of this country is that they know almost nothing, and,
worse still, cannot be taught. I once spent a fruitless
hour, at the request of the then Editor of The Times
in London trying to explain the credit system to
the historian Trevelyn. He begged me to desist saying
that his mind was incapable of understanding. But he
had asked for enlightenment himself. Roosevelt
seems to have wanted to help farmers and factories.
Instead he helped only the banks in whose debt these
men stood. The debtors borrowed Roosevelt's money

not to use it in production but to pay their debts to the
bankers. Thus, the whole burden of debt was placed
squarely on the shoulders of the American people while
the banks got clean away. But did Roosevelt really
want this to happen ?

It was so kind of you to send me the paper " Edge "
with Wendy's verses. She was deeply touched and very
de lighted. I should like to become a subscriber
to"Edge"myself.

I have at last found a copy of my " Gipsy Queen "
I am sending it to you under separate cover with
a copy of the life of Napoleon I wrote in the 30ies.
Do please accept them.

With kindest regards, I am
