About this Item

Marbled boards, printed spine label. Edition limited to 140 numbered and 10 lettered copies, this one of the 10 lettered copies specially bound and on Barcham Green "Eltham" handmade paper; printed at the Tragara Press. "The present poem has not previously been published except for the first three-and-ninety lines which appeared in Many Moods (1878) under the title 'On the Riviera' . . . It is of course homosexual in inspiration and, if superficially insincere, it bears the stamp of its author's desperate violence of emotion which overwhelmed him to the point of sometimes damaging his health.".
