Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memories of President Lincoln: And Other Lyrics of the War In early copies of the first edition that were put into cloth of Walt Whitman´s / Drum-taps / New York, / 1865. / (12mo Pp. i-iv: 5-72,) the monody on Lincoln is not to be found. Later on, after the assassination, it appeared in the Sequel to Drum-taps: / (Since the preceding came from the press.) When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom´d, / and other pieces. / Washington / 1865-6. / (12mo Pp. 1-24.) The lyric "O Captain! My Captain!" is also in this Sequel, while "Hush´d be the Camps To-day" had already been included among the various poems that make up Drum-taps (Pp. 5-72). Last of all the quatrain, "This Dust was once the Man," was first printed in Leaves of Grass, / Washington, D. C. / 1871-2. / where the entire suite of four poems is entitled "President Lincoln´s Burial Hymn." In Leaves of Grass / Boston / 1881-2 / this section is finally grouped as "Memories of President Lincoln." Henceforth no further changes are made either in the text or the order of the poems.
