Episode description

Brief considerations of the historical, political and personal background of "Upon Appleton House," and then the rest of the class on "The Unfortunate Lover."  Worst love poem ever written?  Or amazing and strange outlier.  Hint: the latter.  Some talk of vexillogy, in particular of heraldic blazons, for those who get excited by that sort of thing.
