'Another Love': a sonnet written to bouts-rimés by Dante Gabriel Rossetti; circa 1848. Autograph fair copy, with one revision apparently in another hand, written on one side only of an octavo leaf of white wove paper. No watermark. The leaf has been numbered '130' in pencil by an unknown hand. The head of the leaf is much damaged, affecting the first three lines, and the title has been re-written in pencil at the foot by W. M. Rossetti. Perhaps this damage has given rise to the suggestion in E. G. Millar's typewritten 'Hand-List of MS. material in the Ashley Library', 1937-1939, f. 157, that the leaf 'is probably one of the 3(?) surviving leaves from the book of poems buried by Rossetti in his wife's grave'. No evidence is adduced to support this statement. According to W. M. Rossetti in the notes to The Works of Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1911, pp. 673-674, 'The rhyme-words were given by me; and my brother then rattled off the sonnet as fast as he could'. The sonnet is printed in The Works, etc., p. 264, where one word in the first line, most of which has been lost in the MS., appears to have been wrongly reconstructed. [Ashley Library Catalogue, iv, p. 154].
