Sobre este artículo
A holograph one-page manuscript written by Watts-Dunton (1832-1914), noted English critic and poet and close friend of Algernon Swinburne, whom he rescued from alcoholism, in fountain pen, and signed by him at end. Undated, but possibly a draft or submission manuscript to publisher. The poem appeared in "The Queen's Carol: An Anthology of Poems, Stories, Essays, Drawings, and Music, London, 1905. Interestingly, the holograph poem is a near facsimile, except for the 'stage description' that separates the two stanzas. In the holograph version: "The baby looks up and smiles at a star shining through a hole in the garret roof." But the published version has, "The baby suddenly drops its lips from the nipple, looks up, and smiles at a star shining through a hole in the garret roof." 8 x 10 inches on lightly ruled paper. Very good. Scarce thus.
