Mathilda

CHAPTER XII
24/53

In an unpublished letter (1822) to Jane Williams she wrote, "Until I met Shelley I [could ?] justly say that he was my God--and I remember many childish instances of the [ex]cess of attachment I bore for him." See Nitchie, _Mary Shelley_, p.

89, and note 9.
[24] Cf.

the account of the services of Fantasia in the opening chapter of _F of F--A_ (see pp.

90-102) together with note 3 to _The Fields of Fancy_.
[25] This passage beginning "Day after day" and closing with the quotation is not in _F of F--A_, but it is in _S-R fr_.

The quotation is from _The Captain_ by John Fletcher and a collaborator, possibly Massinger.
