It contains in its title an anagram and a neologism: ''Cadenus'' is anagram of the Latin ''de canus'', Swift was dean of St Patrick's, and known as Dean Swift in the manner of the time; the neologism is ''Vanessa'', in secret reference to Esther Vanhomrigh, the name starts with the first three letters of her surname and the first two of her first name. With this poem Swift created the popular woman's name ''Vanessa''. ==References==
