-Sir, some time ago, you were kind enough to allow me to study in your library, and also to extend your hospitality to my daughter.

-I thought you would perhaps be interested in the fruits of the work I was undertaking at the time. Enclosed with this note is a copy of my translation of De Poetica, a work by Aristotle recently discovered by my sodales and my own notes on the translation.

-I found this a fascinating text both from academic and hermetic perspectives. As we discussed before, much of my own research involves the impact of artistic endeavour on the world. The perfect curve of an arch is both aesthetic in nature and creates a natural strength. An imperfect arch fails both to stand up to the weight necessary and is also less than beautiful. Aristotle's work demonstrates the potential strength in language which may have relevance to Bonisagus' theory of magic which uses language as one means to control magic.

-As you perhaps can tell, I am fascinated by this potential link between the thinking of the ancient Greek scholars and the modern day thinking of mages, especially those interested in the melding of art and magic. From our previous conversations, it seemed likely to match your own interests and I wondered if you would be interested in entering into regular correspondence on it, with the idea of later publication of the letters to the Order.
