(note: short line to indicate the end of that paragraph)

My first and second are the Lot of each delighted guest When every sorrow is forgot (note: appears to have made a mistake spelling "forgot" because the word is in darkened ink and there are traces of the previous barely visible.) (note: In the right hand margin, "sonnets" is written. At (Thencers?) Social Feast - They both together form a word Which when those hours are hark They grieve to think howe'er deferd: (note: "d" was on top of the colon, which probably means that this is shorthand for deferred.) Must be pronounc'd at last. (note: slight flourish at the end to indicate the last sentence of that section. The next line has two underlines to indicate the end of the section.)

I would not be my first (note: In the right hand margin, "Scottland" is written.) For the sake of my second Nor for the (1illegible) of my whole. (note: slight flourish at the end to indicate the last sentence of that section. The next line has two underlines to indicate the end of the section.)
