In U.A.Fanthorpe's _Selected Poems_ (Penguin), "Robert Lindsay's Hamlet",
one couplet reads (foot of page 92):
Who could mime anything new from this heap of
Old British rubbish?
... is "mime" here a misprint for "mine", or is that how it should read?
(Either word would make sense in the context.)
The poem originally appeared in _Voices Off_, and I'd be grateful to anyone
who has a copy of this to hand to let me know what's printed there.
