The White Gates,

Dear Frank1
Programme Notes
I have discovered a misprint in the quotation from Shelley for the prelude “to suffer wrongs” should read “woes”. The word “wrongs” in the second line is correct.
Could this be corrected before any copies are sent out.
Yours sincerely,
R. Vaughan Williams

2. See VWL2424 for the quotations which precede the movements of Sinfonia Antartica (Catalogue of Works 1952/2) where the text was given correctly.
