Thank you, Kelly, Bill, and Joel (who wrote to me privately). I wondered
about Sanford for Samford, but he's not in the ODNB either, so I didn't
pursue it farther. Obviously he's the one, though. Another good reason
to have a Sidney AND Spenser mailing list! Also interesting that a
Sidney man would be so finicky about feminine rhyme...
