Note 374 — RAPE OF THE LOCK.
Reading edition
Verse 13, &c., stood thus in the first edition:
Sol through white curtains did his beams display, And ope'd those eyes which brighter shine than they: Shock just had giv'n himself the rousing shake, And nymphs prepared their chocolate to take; Thrice the wrought slipper knocked against the ground, And striking watches the tenth hour resound.—Pope.
