The first volume is divided into two parts:
(1) Selections from the poems published in 1830, ‘Claribel’
to the ‘Sonnet to J. M. K.’ inclusive.
(2) Selections from the poems of 1832, ‘The
Lady of Shalott’ to ’The Goose’
inclusive.
The second volume contains poems then, with two exceptions,
first published.
