I'm not sure if the sources from which I drew these disagreed on the spelling of the poet's surname or if I made a typo in transcribing from one or the other. I'll look it up eventually. In the meantime, I refuse to believe that Stopford A. Brooke and a Stopford A. Brooks are different people. I may be wrong, of course, but...
