Grey Long 01-02

This file contains paras covering Old Categories I and II. Our best guess is that they were probably written between 1940 and 1955, during the writing of The Wisdom of the Overself, and in the years that followed, up to the time PB met Evangeline.

Because these notebooks have to be held vertically rather than horizontally, they came to be called “long;” and this particular group were originally housed in binders that were covered with a sort of silvery-grey paper—hence “Grey Long.”
