Description

"I should be glad to give you permission to reprint my poem ‘THE GLORY OF THE GARDEN’ in the June issue of your magazine"

TLS, one page, 8 x 10.25, Burwash, Etchingham letterhead, May 30, 1922. Letter marked “Private” and sent to Rev. C. Buckingham Baker, in full: “In reply to your letter of May 29th. I should be glad to give you permission to reprint my poem ‘THE GLORY OF THE GARDEN’ in the June issue of your magazine. It is legally necessary, for copyright purposes, for you to publish a notice, in connection with the use of the verses, saying that they are reprinted with my permission from ‘Twenty Poems’ published by Methuen and Co.” In fine condition. First published in A School History of England in 1911, ‘The Glory of the Garden’ by Rudyard Kipling delves into the symbolism of English gardens, intertwining themes of hard work, national pride, and religious connotations.
