ABSTRACT
During the day arrived a lovely group of four pieces of gold, green, and deep blue felspar; such a glow of colour, with the brilliancy and many times the depth of mother of pearl! A Christmas present from Ruskin; sent without a word, but speaking of his remembrance of my love of colour, which I prize more than many words. I am writing now, gladdened by the flashes of the lighted colour of these lovely stones beside me on the table.
