Item description from seller

One partial sheet, 12 x12 inches, the lower left quadrant cut away — the complete poem, written on both sides, signed: “Mr. Compositor:-- Please follow copy, precisely. B.T.” Inspired by Shakespeare’s "The Tempest". Taylor’s take on freedom vs. confinement (quiet desperation?). The first appearance of the poem may have been in Graham’s Magazine, May, 1849. It appeared frequently thereafter, two examples - Taylor’s "A Book of Romances", Ticknor, Reed and Fields, 1852 (BAL 1964); his "The Poems", Ticknor and Fields, 1866. The editors of "The Poems of Robert Browning, 1862-1871" (published in 2014 by Routledge), pages 6 and 7, speculate that Browning’s poem, “Caliban Upon Setebos”, (from "Dramatis Personae", 1864) was probably partially suggested by Taylor’s poem. Along with "The Tempest", Browning was influenced by his friend Richard Henry Stoddard’s “The Witches Whelp”, 1851, and that poem was inspired by Stoddard’s best friend, Bayard Taylor — all three men “shared the same American publisher.” The paper a little toned, some folds, evidently for mailing as there is a partial red wax seal on one corner. In Very Good condition.
