| Evidence: | 'A grim account of the menage [at Theodore Watts-Dunton's home The Pines, Putney, where the poet Swinburne went to live after his health failed] was given to the poet Wilfrid Blunt by his cousin George Wyndham, whose visit in 1891 had "ended in Watts reading out his own poems instead of letting Swinburne read his." [recorded in Blunt's diary for 7 August 1891]' |
