okay, I know very few people care about the early poems, but as I've been
living with "A Virginal" as the topic of my senior thesis, I've noticed
some things that I need clarified.
 
connections (diction, semantics) between "A Virginal," "Apparuit,"
"L'Invitation," and in a different strain "A Virginal," "A Girl," "The
Tree," and "Hugh Selwyn Mauberly."--the first set is fine, but the
second...
let me get to the question here: the story of daphne and apollo as
described in ovid's metamorphoses relates to all these poems, but I'm not
sure about the exact details of the story.  so if anyone knows, or knows
of anything written about anything on this matter, let me know.
thanks, and sorry for the incoherence.
