  • A Few Relevant Manuscript Pages of *The Four Zoas* or *Vala* Mix Photo
    44v, the first of three pages in the standard editorial sequence. The preceding page (not shown), 44r (recto), is the reverse of this sheet, and contains some of Blake's handwritten lines for this long poem. Blake cut up a print, forming pages now numbered 44v & 45r, and wrote poetry on both their reverse sides (now numbered 44r and 45v) and on this page. The first line on this page comes just after the last line on 44r and the last line on this page comes just before the first line on 45v.

    This side of the page is 45r (recto) editorially, but, as Blake added no text to this side of the cut-up portion of a print, it could as easily have been designated 45v while the opposite side of the page (45v, editorially), shown in the next photo, could have been designated 45r.
