| Evidence: | Robert Southey to Grosvenor Charles Bedford, 31 May 1792: 'You understand music. as I am ignorant of the tune I beg you will practise "Lillabullero" to teach me. You see I have been reading Tristram Shandy & I want that whistle as bad as ever Toby did. Watsons Chemical Essay are [sic] my present study & I hope to practice a little chemistry at Oxford when I get there.'
