CALENDARS


Leaving England December 24, 1731
He arrived in France the next day:
January 3. The Reverend Joseph Spence
Died owed eleven days including a Christmas
And a New Year. One of the children
Who come by chance into the world
Came to Oxford from Milan with three days
Neatly wrapped in a parcel but arrived
Seven and a three-quarter hours too late.
