(3) discusses Swinburne's Bothwell. (4), which Swinburne warns is a "most egoistically Shakespearean letter," refers to the Psyche of Molière and Corneille and discusses completing his (Swinburne's) "estimate & analysis of Hamlet" which he declares "the best piece of prose as well as the subtlest & most accurate work of thought I ever achieved."
