Date of composition January 1830 through fall 1831; 1833-34; 1838(?).
	Contrary to earlier assumptions (see Dearden, ed., Iteriad, 22), this manuscript probably was not used during the summer tour of 1830, since poems associated with that tour (nos. 78-82, 84, and 85[?]) are not listed in Ruskin’s index to MS VI (see  Content,  a, below); however, the manuscript may have accompanied Ruskin on the summer tour of 1831 (see no. 91).
