Notes and attribution research

Poet attribution: there is some doubt about the authorship of the poem because, although the poem is signed by Sophia E. Rookes, the Once a Week account book lists the author as Ralph Augustus Benson, and it is uncertain if Benson would have used this other name as a pseudonym (Curran Index). (AC)
