Subject: Query: Laundry List Embedded in Pound's Cantos

As part of an overly long article on copyright and computer programs
I find myself worried about the copyright status of texts embedded in
computer programs and of computer programs embedded in texts.

While thinking about such matters, I began to think that there might
be some sort of analogy to the embedding of a laundry list in a poem,
which I believe was done by Pound in one of his Cantos. (But perhaps
that belief is just an artifact of old age, rather than a true
memory.)

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could either assure me that
Pound never did such a thing or, preferably, give me a citation to the
Canto where the laundry list occurs.

Thanks,
Peter
