VERLAINE PAUL (1844-1896)
Autograph POEM, [The Good Fear]; 1 page in-8 numbered 12.
Draft of erotic poem.
First draft, much crossed out and corrected, of the last 14 lines of the poem The Good Fear collected in Flesh (1896).
"But frightening
One would say of savagery, Of structure badly squared, Closed and gaping!
O yes I am afraid, not of the den
Nor of the way that one enters there"...
We join 3 L.A.S. and a visiting card of Anna de NOAILLES.
