Note
  • "This is the definitive edition... In preparing it, editor John Lauritsen spent days in New York City's Morgan Library, which has the unique surviving first edition copy of Leon to Annabella and the oldest surviving edition of Don Leon (Dugdale 1866). Both poems, and especially the notes, contain many passages, some of them long, in foreign languages: Latin, Greek, French, German, and Italian. This is the first and only edition to translate them into English."--Page 4 of cover.
