[QUOTE="BobP, post: 1548491, member: 13687"]I think I may have lost to you in this auction (Nov., 2019?). If so, congratulations! (I was SO disappointed.) When I was researching the piece, I found the original song that (may have) inspired the work. Have you seen it yet? The earliest copy I found was in The New Monthly Magazine, 1822, p. 314 ([URL]https://books.google.com/books?id=vScAAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PA314&ots=sW6wVQgVz_&dq=%22devil%20and%20the%20nuns%22&pg=PA314#v=onepage&q=%22devil%20and%20the%20nuns%22&f=false[/URL]), and it was reprinted in the Commonplace Book of British Song, 1823 ([URL]https://books.google.com/books?id=TFgzCRPuHZUC&lpg=PA438&ots=7qY7TlUL8T&dq=%22devil%20and%20the%20nuns%22%20cowper&pg=PA229#v=onepage&q=%22devil%20and%20the%20nuns%22%20cowper&f=false[/URL]). It's a fun song! Check it out! And if you ever decide to sell the piece, I'll be interested! :-) BP[/QUOTE]
