Title: A Volume Of Nonsense Author: Lord Byron [More Titles by Byron] DEAR MURRAY,-- You ask for a "_Volume of Nonsense_,"
FOOTNOTES: [1] [For Felicia Dorothea Browne (1793-1835), married in 1812 to Captain Hemans, see _Letters_, iii. 368, _note_ 2. In the letter which contains these verses he writes, "I do not despise Mrs. Heman; but if she knit blue stockings instead of wearing them it would be better." Elsewhere he does despise her: "No more _modern_ poesy, I pray, neither Mrs. Hewoman's nor any female or male Tadpole of poet Wordsworth's."--_Ibid._, v. 64.] [The end] GO TO TOP OF SCREEN |
