Poe's personal copy of The Raven and Other Poems, with numerous
changes made in pencil. This copy is bound together with Tales,
and appears to have been issued in this form about February 1846. Poe's
changes, therefore, may be dated as 1846-1849.
The poems in this edition are listed below, but only the texts with
changes have a link:
- "Preface"
(some minor deletions and changes in punctuation, with one substantive
phrase transposed)
- "The Valley of Unrest" (no changes)
- "Lenore"
(heavily revised final stanza)
- "Dream-land"
(minor changes, mostly in punctuation, but one verbal change)
- "Sonnet — to Zante" (no changes)
- "To F——s S. O——d" (no changes)
- "Sonnet — Silence" (no changes)
- "The Haunted Palace"
(several small punctuation changes, one change in spelling and one
verbal correction)
- "Sonnet — To Science" (no changes)
- "Fairy-land" (no changes)
- "To the River ——" (no changes)
- "The Lake — To ——" (no changes)
