Footnote Wasteland


An example of how the hypertext link can work for poetry can be found in a hypertext version of The Wasteland.
Here is the first four lines of Part II, A Game of Chest:

The Chair she sat in, like a burnished throne

Glowed on the marble where the glass

Held up by standards wrought with fruited vines

From which a golden
Cupidon peeped out
