Side 469 - This is owing to you, for you put it into my head by the question you put to me at Chalfont, which before I had not thought of.
Side 93 - For now the Poet cannot die Nor leave his music as of old, But round him ere he scarce be cold Begins the scandal and the cry : " Proclaim the faults he would not show : Break lock and seal : betray the trust : Keep nothing sacred : 't is but just The many-headed beast should know.
