MARY CRESSWELL When they lost the plot we had only the notes to go on [1] The neopantoum structure, with its use of the hard rhymes drape, nape, rape, escape, echoes the beating wings of the seagull. [2] Well-known for prefiguring Apollinaire’s calligrammes, she wrote little (if anything) after the Russian Revolution. [3] Word unclear in the original. [4] A copy hangs in the Louvre. [5] 1865?-1918 [6] Reputed mistress of the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII), Lady Beaufort was never in Antibes. [7] Can be translated either as the colour or as the degenerative disease. [8] Text corrupted. This rendition assumes that she survived childbirth and did in fact visit the Lesser Antilles.
