Summary

Description
English: Milton a Poem, copy C, object 4 (Bentley 4, Erdman 6, Keynes 4) detail-a

Sector AB Interlinear Illustration: Curving lines right of lines 3-8 in the text may be vines, veins, or sinews. A Druid landscape fills the space between lines 15 and 16 of the text. We see, from left the right, a trilithon with at least one large tree behind it, a group of several standing and perhaps a few sitting figures, a large stone, and what may be side views of three or four more trilithons. Wavy lines right of lines 16-19 of the text, running below line 19, and filling the space between lines 21 and 22 may be vines, veins, or sinews. Component (Sector B)

Keywords: vine, veins, sinews

Curving lines right of lines 3-8 in the text may be vines, veins, or sinews. Wavy lines right of lines 16-19 of the text, running below line 19, and filling the space between lines 21 and 22 continue this motif

Component (Sector AB)

Keywords: Druid, trilithon, stone, tree

A Druid landscape fills the space between lines 15 and 16 of the text. We see, from left the right, a trilithon with at least one large tree behind it, a large stone, and what may be side views of three or four more trilithons.

Component (Sector A)

Keywords: group of figures, standing, sitting, Druid

To the left of the left-most trilithon between lines 15 and 16 of the text are some small forms that may be standing and sitting figures. Given their context among trilithons, these may be Druids.

Component (Sector A)

Keywords: grass

Green coloring beneath the left-most trilithon and the group of figures suggests grass.

Component (Sector AB)

Keywords: sky, cloud, sunrise, sunset

Cloud outlines appear in the interlinear design between lines 15 and 16 of the text. Blue, pink, and yellow washes indicate sky at sunrise or sunset.
