New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1958. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good +/very good. 62 pp. Deep blue cloth, lettered in gilt and silver, with the dust jacket. Minor dulling to gilt, small old stain at foot of spine; jacket spine torn and crinkled at head, affecting the author's first name, but complete. Inscribed on the flyleaf "For Bill Merwin with regards / and growing admiration / Bill / New York / 1958" A nice association between two poets who were both initially published in the Yale Series of Younger Poets and who both later served as U.S. Poet Laureate.
