Scope and content

Despite the label on the front, most of the notebook is taken up with draft verse on a classical Greek theme. First line 'Cease ye fainthearted fellow thralls of woe..."; references to Zeus and Persephone [perhaps Trevelyan's piece on Prometheus?]. Notebook also used from other end in for short draft from "The Foolishness of Solomon", draft letter or speech on Free Trade and Tariff Reform.
