Content: Draft, with revisions, of "As at Thy Portals Also Death," which was first published in the 1881–82 edition of Leaves of Grass . A second, smaller leaf, was at some point pasted over the lines at the bottom of the first leaf, but it has become separated and is at present stored separately as "[To her, the ideal woman]."
