(N.p., 1915. Single page. Signed by Frost. The typescript has been copied in blue ink, with two manuscript corrections in Frost's hand. The first, a change from "need" to "wish" in the second line, appears in subsequent editions of the poem, which was first published in Frost's Mountain Interval in 1916. The second correction, a revision of "the" to "some" in the twentieth line, has not remained; the published line thus reads "I shall make the reckless choice." Creased where folded in fourths and a single spot of foxing not affecting the text, else a fine typescript from early in Frost's career, with unique pre-publication alterations.
