EDNOTE. Lovers of the double dactyl will find a bit about the use of  Nabokov's name in the NABOKV-L Archive.

-----------------------------------------

FROM James Fenton's "An Introduction to English Poetry"

The double dactyl, with its fascinating rule that the second part should contain a line consisting of one double-dactyl word, is another form that forbids a straight face:

Higgledy piggledy
Vladimir Nabokov -
Wait! Hasn't somebody
Made a mistake?

Out of such errors, Vla-
dimir Nabokov would
Sesquipedelian

Paragraphs make.
