Notes

  • Epigraph: It was good, it was kind, in the Wise One above, / To throw Destiny's veil o'er the face of our years; / That we dread not the blow that may strike at our love, / And know not the hand that may dry up our tears.
  • The Epigraph is a misquotation of the opening verse of Eliza Cook's poem 'The Future'
