VERLAINE. Paul. Autograph poem signed, 1 folio in-8, trace of folding, small stains and wetness, laminated by upper corners on strong cardboard. Poem to F. A. Cazals, dated late June 1893, published in the collection Invectives, published by Vanier in 1896, pages 119-120, under number LVI, some overprints. It includes a few changes from the printed text: Verse 6 ends with an exclamation mark. Verse 9, death with a t, which will not be retained. Verses 11-12 differ from the printed version: "Cernant mon lit, penché au bord, Même elle a fait faux bond ma mort". These will be transformed in the printed version: "Near my bed, rushed to the edge, Elle a fait quel faux-bond ma mort". In verse 15: Car will be replaced by Même.
