Thus poem is subtitled, "Dictionary poem in SN." On the left side of the card, Mayer presents an English translation from a text by Mallarme, "Les Mots Anglais (1877) that deals with creation of words. For example, Mallarme states that 'sneer' and 'snake' lead a reader of English to regard the diagraph 'SN' as being sinister. He then uses 'SN' to create a layout of words with such a beginning through incorporation of the vowels, e.g., snag, snail, sneak, sneeze, snide, sniper, snob, snot, snub, snuff. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
