Draft for a title page, beginning "or Halycon days," with a note at the
head "for title page to supplement of L of G not Nov. Boughs." The
verso appears to have been a previous title page draft for "Fancies at Navesink."
"Halcyon Days" first
appeared in the New York
Herald
on 29 January 1888, and was reprinted in the "Sands at Seventy
Annex" to
Leaves of
Grass
(1888).
