- Sara Teasdale Papers | <emph render="bold">Original Papers</emph> | Letter signed Sara, New York, to Grace [Parrish]. I am expecting to sail on the <span class="italic emph">Lanconia</span> for London and shall have a youngster with me named Betty Smith. Will wrote me a long frank letter. Her life seems happy and Signor Maggi congenial. I am like you in my adoration of England. If it were not for the climate I’d live there though there is no one person in England who means anything to me. (Some account of her ancestors, the Willards). My book on Christina Rossetti is to be only a selection of her love poems with a biographical introduction by me. Prose is the devil and all–and so is poetry when one has no longer the steam of youth. Persons mentioned: Isabel [Parrish?] and Nancy [Coonsman Hahn]. (8 pages) (Gift of the Parrish Family, St. Louis, June 1955), 1932 Feb 12
