- NOTES
- In New England where "Northern natur" is "slow an' apt to doubt,"
- 41. The original edition has "grasping" instead of "groping."
- 46. Compare _Al Fresco_, lines 34-39:
- 56. Nice: Delicately discriminating.
- 62. This line originally read "because God so wills it."
- 77. Note the happy effect of the internal rhyme in this line.
- 93. Healed with snow: Explain the appropriateness of the metaphor.
- 138. The original edition has "unscarred mail."
- 148. Leper: Why did the poet make the crouching beggar a leper?
- 152. For "gan shrink" the original has "did shrink."
- 155. Bent of stature: Criticise this phrase.
- 163. No true alms: The alms must also be in the heart.
- 164. Originally "He gives nothing but worthless gold."
- 172. Store: Plenty, abundance.
- 254. Recked: Cared for.
- 285. See _John_ xx, 25-27.
- 292. Girt: The original word here was "caged."
- 308. Himself the Gate: See _John_ x, 7, 9: "I am the door."
- 312. This line at first began with "which."
- 315. Lo, it is I: _John_ vi, 20.
- 326. The original has "bestows" for "gives."
- 328. Swound: The antiquated form of _swoon_.
- 52-54. Compare _Sir Launfal._
- 50. Compare with this stanza the pretty little poem, _The Birch Tree._
- Compare the description in _Sunthin' in the Pastoral Line:_
- 134. Another change: The description now returns to the marshes.
- 209. Muses' factories: The buildings of Harvard College.
- 17. Crooknecks: Crookneck squashes.
- 36. All is: The truth is, "all there is about it."
- 37. Long o' her: Along of her, on account of her.
- 58. Somewhat doubtful as to the sequel.
- 25-26. Clear fame: Compare Milton's _Lycidas:_
- 62. Lifeless creed: Compare Tennyson's:
- 84. An echo of _Macbeth_, V, 5:
- 182. Innative: Inborn, natural.
