...Theme by Handel." To this listener the sum of the component parts presents a rather uneven collection of interesting and dull music, chief objection to which lies in the fact that the peaks and lows arrive with such regularity that one finds himself awaiting what Pope called "The sure return of still expected rhymes." Fortunately, there is a Fugue of romantic exuberance to top off the work.

The number of readers should be increased so that more attention can be paid to each paper and so that the process can be speeded up. The paper could thus be returned in time for the student to make any justified complaints before his grade is handed in.
