Manuscript drafts by William Wordsworth of his poems "Recovery" and "The Fall of the Aar." The latter has been completely crossed out and is likely a first draft and the first line is not entirely legible. The poems differ from their published versions. "Recovery" was published in his Ecclesiastical Sketches and "The Fall of Aar" in his Memorials of a Tour on the Continent, 1820. The sheet is attached to another piece of paper that contains annotations not in Wordsworth's hand.
