A small clarification[edit]

I'd like to point out that in the play, Housman is not actually dead; he is having a dream in which he is dead. Hence the plot description might be a bit inaccurate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.8.43.2 (talk) 18:55, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Not sure how true this is. The first lines are these:

AEH, aged seventy-seven and getting no older, wearing a buttoned-up dark suit and neat black boots, stands on the bank of the Styx watching the approach of the ferryman, Charon.

AEH: I'm dead, then. Good. And this is the Stygian gloom one has heard so much about. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.90.29.137 (talk) 05:47, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
