Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Percy Dearmer

[1925]

Dear Dearmer,
I can’t remember what the tune is – but as far as I can remember it is a perfectly simple one.  But I suppose we must give in – but let them print the other tune as well if possible
After all we set out to do S. of P. as a compendium to all we approved of – it seems to me we are saying “These are my principles if you don’t like them, they can easily be altered”.  Please let this be the last time
yrs sincerely

R Vaughan Williams
