"This Dover edition, first published in 2005, is a republication of Longfellow's translation of "The Inferno" with his accompanying notes, originally published in 1886 in "The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri: Inferno", Volume IX of "The Works of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow" by Houghton Mifflin and Company, Boston." on copyright page. "Cover artwork: "The Barque of Dante" by Eugene Delacroix, 1822" on back cover. Copyright page says the two stanzas of Longfellow poetry that appear on page v are taken from "Voices of the Night", but this does not seem to be the case; they seem to have been written specifically for this translation and were included in his collection, "Flower-De-Luce", not "Voices of the Night".
