The Impaled Butterfly and Danish Theatre Glories

A collage of verse and prose notes from a 19th century periodical. It opens with a fanciful poem about a butterfly reborn in beauty and freedom, then moves through observations on Copenhagen’s Royal Boxes for poets, a Neapolitan navy tale, reflections on solitude, and anecdotes about Malibran and Sontag followed by Flaxman and his wife, Turkish titles, French dairies, thirst quenched by buffalo blood, and a biblical war meditation.
