Note: Sometimes designated as version 2 of the 3 Howard poems with this name.

First published in The Howard Collector # 10, Spring 1968. Version 3 of poems with the same name is now thought to be the last part of this version (lines 81-96); published copies prior to 2009 do not include lines beyond 80.
