Yes, great stuff, Jayne. You've done it the hard way, not just sixteen different lines but sixteen different poets. John's Shakespearean one made me check the rubrics and indeed it does say different poems and not different poets so he's within the rubric too. I'd misread them, so hadn't got much further than a series of false starts;

In shards the sylvan vases lie (Melville)
Between the acres of the rye (Shakespeare)

or
Among the saints he shall be seen (Eliot)
Safe at the Dorchester hotel (Betjeman)

Ah well, back to the something or other.
