These notes about sculpture have some similarity to a line in the 1855 poem eventually titled "A Song for Occupations." Edward Grier notes that the "writing seems to be that of the early notebooks; thus the date might be in the 1850s" (
Notebooks and Unpublished Prose Manuscripts
[New York: New York University Press, 1984], 6:2033).
