Dear Streatfeild
I want to return you the “Este’s Psalter”1 you so kindly lent me – but its back is broken owing to use and being a paper book. May I have it bound – or shall I send it to your binder to have it bound like your other books?
Yrs very tr[uly]
R. Vaughan Williams

1. The Whole Book of Psalmes with their Wonted Tunes as they are Sung in Churches, 1592. VW made heavy use of this in his preparation for the English Hymnal.
