Housman is said originally to have titled his book The Poems of Terence Hearsay, referring to a character there, but changed the title to A Shropshire Lad at the suggestion of a colleague in the British Museum. In the letter to Pollet already mentioned, Housman pointed out that there was a discontinuity between the Classical scholar who wrote the poems and the "imaginary" Shropshire Lad they portrayed. It is not a connected narrative; though the "I" of the poems is in two cases named as Terence (VIII, LXII), the "Shropshire Lad" of the title, he is not to be identified with Housman himself. written into the 1920 edition of A Shropshire Lad.[39] They were followed by Hugh Kingsmill's "Two poems after A.E.Housman".	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-9103.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-9103.txt
