Epigraph

Quo desiderio veteres revocamus amores
  Atque olim amissas flemus amicitias.
          Catullus.

Footnotes

1 The Virgil was probably bought by William Murray at some sale of Pope’s books, for on the fly-leaf is written “E. Libris A. Popei, Pr. 5s.”

2 Pope who had only once set eyes on Dryden, and had no acquaintance with him, marks his admiration by including him in this memorial of relations and friends.
