Notes
According to previous cataloging, this autograph poem is said to be the copy sent by Keats to Clark.
Added to this collection in November 1935 from a volume including Keats's poem "Cap and Bells."
Identified in Garrod as a "first draft," but apparently a fair copy.
Inscribed "To Marian Reynolds" in the autograph of her brother John Hamilton Reynolds.
Keats composed the text of this sonnet in October 1816, after reading Chapman's translation of Homer with Charles Cowden Clarke.
Part of a collection of autograph poems of John Keats. See collection-level record for more information.
Watermark: C. Wilmostt / 1812.
