" That drawing will have to be revised now; and in the new edition Mr. Gosse 179 180 BEAU BEERBOHM will cover the masked carper with confusion, will pierce him with his own pencil, by triumphantly turning Stevenson's attention away from the dis- respectful portraits and out upon the peering draughtsman himself.
Zuleika is written ; and what a rare joy it is to see the words on a page of fiction no longer trudging dully across the page like clerks going to work, but streaming like figures in a c...arnival, each a piece of finished colour, mannered costume, preened dandiacally, and yet all linked together by the hidden music of no tone which the movements of the dance alone betray, and all pelting each other as they dart with perfumed messages full of private meanings.
Delicious, too, to find them forming frank conceits : "Her mouth was a mere replica of Cupid's bow, lacquered scarlet and strung with the littlest pearls " ; or "the shadows crept out across the lawn, thirsty for dew." Here is a manner so light that even pathetic fallacies chuckle as they flit, and the all- dreaded descriptive passage becomes a pirouette.
