Dear Frank
a little while ago you suggested my making a unison song out of the last chorus of my S.O.L. cantata1– I have eventually made a cycle of 4 songs – I feel pretty sure about the last oneĀ  – the other 3 I am not so sure about but would like your opinion

1. Sons of Light cantata. Frank replied in December 1952 that the Oxford University Press would indeed like to publish the cycle, and it was published as Sun, Moon, Stars and Man.
