Time, Real and Imaginary

Time, Real and Imaginary was a poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Richard Harries had a book of poems containing the piece. When Ian Stratford opened the book he found several of the lines underlined; they were:


 * Two lovely children run an endless race,
 * A sister and a brother!
 * This far outstripped the other
 * Yet ever runs she with reverted face,
 * And looks and listens for the boy behind,
 * For he, alas! is blind!
 * O’er rough and smooth with even step he passed,
 * And knows not whether he be ﬁrst or last. (EDA: The Banquo Legacy)
