Titlepage of D/CFA/12 (Adams Papers, Microfilms, Reel No. 64), which begins where D/CFA/11 ends and in which are contained all the journal entries CFA made between the terminal dates indicated here. An explanation of the discrepancy between CFA’s numbering of his Diary volumes and the Adams Papers serial numbering is given at vol. 1:xxxviii–xl. For a description of this Diary MS and of the other MSS from which the printed text of vols. 7 and 8 of the present edition is derived, see the Introduction.

Iliad, 6:207–209. In addition to the six Greek texts owned by JA and JQA cited at vol. 4:307, CFA had acquired C. G. Heyne’s 1802 Leipzig edition of Wolf’s Greek text sometime after 1820; in that edition the lines quoted here, and only those lines, are underscored. Editions of the Pope translation at MQA are cited at vol. 4:186. Also at MQA are Cowper’s Iliad, 2 vols., London, 1809, and his Works (including his translations), 15 vols., London, 1836.
