Mabbott appears to have been searching for a reference that John Patterson made in 1897 about the similarity between the first line of Poe's "The Raven" and the first line of Anacreon's Ode 33. As Mabbott states in the first footnote of his introduction, the direct translation of the original Greek line is closer to the first line of "The Raven" than Thomas Moore's translation of the first line of Anacreon's Ode 33, which would have been Poe's English-language source (had he needed Moore's translation). This response from the NYPL confirmed the similarity between a direct translation from Anacreon's Greek and the first line of "The Raven."
