Crowley's The Translator

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Frost read a poem at Kennedy's inauguration, referred to on p. 4 of THE
TRANSLATOR (which also has another reference to the Shelley quote).  Neither
Falin's poems nor Kit's own poems seem Frost-like to men, though I don't
know that much about poetry.
