"Dover Bitch"

Uncovered whilst researching a claim about "Dover Beach" on an exam essay: "Dover Bitch," by former US Poet Laureate Anthony Hecht.

And as long as we're on the topic of nineteenth-century literary parodies, check (1) Wordsworth's The Leech-Gatherer; or, Resolution and Independence and (2) Lewis Carroll's The White Knight's Song (also available in p. 1668 of our Victorian anthology).
