The life and letters of Theodore Watts-Dunton . r I will not con-ceal from you that she has not a tooth in her head, nora hair (to speak of) upon it. Her age (I am told) isexactly four months ; she is daughter to the familywasherwoman, and empress of the heart of Yours ever affectionately, A. C. Swinburne. ** Bertie, the son of Mrs. Charles Mason, was alittle child when Swinburne went to live on PutneyHill. It was about this boy that the poet wrote hischild verses. Concerning Bertie, Mrs. Lynn Lyntononce remarked to Watts-Dunton, having heard of Swin-burnes devotion to his little nephew at The Pines, that a man who really loves a child knows a greathappiness; and she added, Loving all children ispleasant, but loving one specially, and doing what wecan to mould the character and enrich the intellect, isthe greatest joy of middle life.

However, widely as Watts-Dunton differed from Swinburne incertain artistic tendencies, they had one potent inclina-tion in common—a passion for the sea. In a passagefrom his Preface to Coleridges Lyrical Poems, speakingof the
