Note 1. Rimbaud. Bonne pensée du matin, M. Berrichon quoting this poem in his memoir has punctuated it throughout. But Rimbaud was experimenting on free verse, and, I think, wished to show that such verse should be independent of grammatical stops. This can only be exhibited by their omission. In line 13, Ah! (for O) is from Berrichon’s text. [back]
