Content:
A five-line draft of a poem, entitled "A Death-Bouquet," which was never published
and has an unknown relationship to Whitman's published work. A subtitle
reads "Fresh pick'd noon time early January, 1890, By Walt Whitman." These
lines bear some relation to Whitman's brief essay of the same name.
