Note 36 — Chapter VII
Reading edition
The passage “enough of the world ... in unmixed delight” is on a slip pasted over the middle of the page. Some of the obscured text is visible in the margin, heavily scored out. Also in the margin is “Canto IV Vers Ult,” referring to the quotation from Dante’s Paradiso. This quotation, with the preceding passage beginning “in whose eyes,” appears in Mathilda only.
