Caveat lector: these poems were proofed once by an assistant a number
of years ago.  The text used for the translations from the Aeneid is
Poems, ed. Emrys Jones (Oxford University Press, 1964); for the rest
of the poems, The Poetry of Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, ed.  Charles
Ellison Wickert (Diss. Washington University, 1960).  The first
number refers to Wickert's edition; the second is the line number.
