Content: This manuscript scrap might be part of the missing page 8 of another manuscript by Whitman, "A Visit to the Opera," held at the Huntington Library . These and other manuscripts about opera singing bear an obvious relationship with the article "The Opera," published in Life Illustrated on November 10, 1855, although the details of the relationship are unclear. For a description of the intricacies of these various manuscripts, see Edward Grier, Notebooks and Unpublished Prose Manuscripts (New York: New York University Press, 1984) 1:388-398. The manuscript is pasted down, making the verso inaccessible.
