Introduction
This copy of the poem is the third of three that he sent in letters of late July and early August 1871 (the other two to William Bell Scott and Thomas Gordon Hake). The text here is taken from the manuscript that DGR sent in a letter to his mother of 11 August 1871 (see also Fredeman, Correspondenceno. 71. 120).
