First, that’s described as a “working” manuscript
Second, it’s obviously not the final version because it says Anne, not Mary
Third, read what Sotheby’s then say: “The song's opening line – "The screen door slams, Mary's dress waves" – introduces Mary, the object of the anonymous protagonist's desires.”
