Neville recounts that people have asked him why Blake had no money, and answers that no amount of money could today buy the single coloured copy of Jerusalem Blake sold for about a hundred guineas, now locked up at Yale.

Reasoning
Qualifying passage ids [542268] belong to telling lecture nids [1536]. Each listed lecture contributes the selected safe envelope year 1972 (MAX of its non-refuted delivery years); 1972 is the MIN across telling lectures.
before 10 March 1972
bound
Why
Tightens the phase4 L6a envelope from before 1972 to before 1972-03-10.
Reasoning
L6a envelope tightened to the telling day of nid 1536 (certain delivery 1972-03-10); same premise, finer precision. The phase4 L6a bound on this event is `before 1972`, an envelope over delivery YEARS computed without reading text. Its premise is that the fact is true by the time it is told; on that same premise the DAY of the telling is a strictly better upper bound. Nothing is re-decided — the bound is stated to the precision the evidence always supported. The delivery claim for 1972-03-10 on nid 1536 is held at `certain` by the corpus, which is what carries this claim. #2274; the L6a row stands beside this one.
