Footnotes.
{0a} See Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and other Prose Pieces in this edition, page 223.
{3} Reverently some well-meaning persons have placed a marble slab on the wall of the cemetery with a medallion-profile of Keats on it and some mediocre lines of poetry. The face is ugly, and rather hatchet-shaped, with thick sensual lips, and is utterly unlike the poet himself, who was very beautiful to look upon. 'His countenance,' says a lady who saw him at one of Hazlitt's lectures, 'lives in my mind as one of singular beauty and brightness; it had the expression as if he had been looking on some glorious sight.' And this is the idea which Severn's picture of him gives. Even Haydon's rough pen-and-ink sketch of him is better than this 'marble libel,' which I hope will soon be taken down. I think the best representation of the poet would be a coloured bust, like that of the young Rajah of Koolapoor at Florence, which is a lovely and lifelike work of art.
{19} It is perhaps not generally known that there is another and older peac.o.c.k ceiling in the world besides the one Mr. Whistler has done at Kensington. I was surprised lately at Ravenna to come across a mosaic ceiling done in the keynote of a peac.o.c.k's tail--blue, green, purple, and gold--and with four peac.o.c.ks in the four spandrils. Mr. Whistler was unaware of the existence of this ceiling at the time he did his own.
{43} An Unequal Match, by Tom Taylor, at Wallack's Theatre, New York, November 6, 1882.
{74} 'Make' is of course a mere printer's error for 'mock,' and was subsequently corrected by Lord Houghton. The sonnet as given in The Garden of Florence reads 'orbs' for 'those.'

{172} The verses called 'The Shamrock' were printed in the Sunday Sun, August 5, 1894, and the charge of plagiarism was made in the issue dated September 16, 1894.
{188} Cousin errs a good deal in this respect. To say, as he did, 'Give me the lat.i.tude and the longitude of a country, its rivers and its mountains, and I will deduce the race,' is surely a glaring exaggeration.
{190} The monarchical, aristocratical, and democratic elements of the Roman const.i.tution are referred to.

{193b} [Greek].
{193c} The various stages are [Greek].
{197a} Polybius, xii. 24.
