It was clever of the contributor to notice the resemblance (both works are on line and can easily be checked), but I'm actually very skeptical of this hypothesis. The overlap of the two themes is brief, and both tempo and affect are quite different. Lastly, it's verboten (for good reasons) to put personal insights of this kind on WP (see WP:NOR; if some published scholar has noticed the resemblance it would ok to include it.
