Sri Aurobindo — Roy, Dilip Kumar

August 11, 1936

I have finished your long poem. It is a great success. The constantly sustained beauty of the language and imagery and the felicity of the changes of metre, each rhythm coming in with a new expressiveness and attractive charm give a perfection of detail enhanced by a considerable structural finish – a success in prolonged lyrical structure being more difficult than any other.
