the problem is lord littleton then dies two weeks later. oh, god. so and there's a notice in a newspaper that says it says that she that she was that she met lord littleton and that he's going to endorse the bible. it turns like every poet at the time, like you always try to get a blurb from lord littleton in the 1756. this is like everybody knows this, everybody does this. and so she knows exactly what she's doing, but nobody reads lord littleton anymore. nobody's noticed that she's directly ripping on on a on a poem that on littleton's poem that he wrote to pope as his patron. so it's an example of how knowing she is and how well read she is and how up to date she is. and that so that this this strategy of high ambitions hating poet and how ambitious he is. so the strategy of imitating pope is not like, oh, she had old fashioned tastes that are already going out of style in the 1770s. it's like, no, she does exactly what she's doing. and this is a winning strategy. it's just we haven't read the stuff that she's read and realized that she's not jus
