Fairies: Kendal, December, 1922. A very lovely varietiy of fairy lives here. They have the softest and gentlest expression of countenance that I have yet seen, except perhaps on the faces of the Atlantean fairies seen on the western slopes of Snaefell. These are truly beautiful, and move about in the gentlest, quietest manner, with extreme grace and beauty. One of them has observed us and does not seem to be afraid. She is holding her light filmy garment, through which the pink and white form is just discernible, up with her right hand, and in her left she carries some object, which for the moment I cannot describe; the limbs are bare, the hair is long and hangs loose, tiny lights play like a garland round her head, and so beautiful is her carriage, that, were it not for the complete absence of self-consciousness and the perfect candour show in the expression of face and eyes, I should have thought she was posing. All around me I see others equally beautiful, each differing in some slight degree from the other. One, whose back is turned towards me, has lovely long dark hair, which hangs down well below the waist; one beautiful white arm is stretched out before her, a little to one side, as she walks slowly through the wood. This place is Fairyland indeed, and would time permit hours could be spend describing the life here. Geoffrey Hodson, Fairies at Work and at Play, (London: Theosophical Publishing House, 1930), 76-77
