Abstract
Continues from a previous letter discussing Gordon Bottomley's poems / discusses the qualities of various examples of Bottomley's verse / discusses these in relation to Isaac Rosenberg's own poems and how he creates them / describes forgetfulness and how this effects not only his verse but potentially his potential for leave / discusses his reading of Hebrew and writing something about Moses / will send versions if he has the opportunity to alter typed versions arriving from home / discusses the poem 'Wedded' and possible improvements / mentions Lascelles Abercrombie's new job as a shell inspector. Pencil draft of 'The Jew' included with the letter.
