text:
Centenary Edition, XVI, The Letters 1843-1853, p.481, #508.
 The CE text is taken from version printed in magazine The Century XLVII (November, 1894), 93-94, and editors state that the source for this was "probably a transcript of [N.H.'s] draft by SH included in a letter to Elizabeth P. Peabody, now unknown". This is appears to be the conjectured transcript.
 Another version of the letter was published in Rose Hawthorne Lathrop's Memories of Hawthorne (1897), 163-67. The CE rejects most variant readings from Memories, but all of these reflect the letter as copied in this transcript.

text: Cavalli, Pier Francesco, 1602-1676. Hipermestra.

text: L'Hipermestra (music, Francesco Cavalli; libretto, Giovanni Andrea Moniglia; scenery, Ferdinando Tacca) was first performed at the Teatro dell'Accademia degli Immobili, Florence, in 1658, on the occasion of the birth of a son to King Philip of Spain. Derived from ancient Greek myth, the story treats the dilemma of Hypermestra, whose loyalties are torn between her father and lover.

text: Etching made by Silvio degli Alli after a design by Ferdinando Tacca. The online catalog of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, which holds copies of other scenes from L'Hipermestra, notes that these etchings were made in two plates, one for the proscenium and one for the scene onstage. This print was made from the latter plate.

text: Moor circulating the cheerful glass is numbered at top right: 4.

text: Gift; Lincoln Kirstein.

text: The dragon of Wantley (music, John Frederick Lampe; libretto, Henry Carey) was first performed at the Little Theatre in the Haymarket, London, in 1737, and was so well received that it soon moved to the larger Covent Garden theatre, where it was presented in its definitive three-act form. Based on a Yorkshire legend, it featured a dragon (sung by a bass) that was vanquished by Moore of Moore-Hall, a man with two romantic interests, his current love Margery and his "cast-off mistress" Mauxalinda. Although this work was meant as a satire of the artificiality and overblown sentimentality of contemporary Italian opera, it was transcended by its score, the only one of Lampe's operas to survive in its entirety.

text: Although these illustrations do not include the artist's name or signature, they may have been engraved by George Bickham, 1706?-1771, for the song collection The musical entertainer, the first edition of which appeared in 1737.

text: Cataloging funds provided by Friends of Jerome Robbins Dance Division.
