- Notes: Fourth 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 an unusual cloth that was not used for the later Kalki edition. Silver Stallion identifies this as FL cloth using the designation from Jacob Blanck's Bibliography of American Literature. The 'c' in the publisher's name on the spine is raised but not underlined. The Kalki device appears on the cover. The cover can be seen here. The number of copies thus bound in unknown. Hall thought the binding was probably unique. Silver Stallion has found three copies for sale. 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.
