  • Notes: Third binding state of the first edition per Hall's James Branch Cabell: A Complete Bibliography. Hall indicates that 620 copies were produced for the first printing, but only 245 were originally bound. The binding state can be identified by the lighter brown cloth used for the later Kalki edition. The 'c' in the publisher's name on the spine is raised and underlined. 176 copies were bound thus per Guy Holt's Cabell bibliography. The full text and images of the first printing are available at The Internet Archive. The scan does not include the covers, and the binding state can not be determined. The poems are arranged in 5 sections of 15 poems each labeled Migonitis, Hortensis, Scoteia, Verticordia and Apaturia.
