Mystery Theme BH V by HensleyB

Question 8

Name either the poem excerpted below or the poem it is alluding to.

Well now, I knew this girl. It’s true she had read
Sophocles in a fairly good translation
And caught that bitter allusion to the sea,
But all the time he was talking she had in mind
The notion of what his whiskers would feel like
On the back of her neck.

The Dover Bitch or Dover Beach
