At the time of her death, she had published very few poems -- four of them in the Springfield Republican, a few in a the Drum Beat and Brooklyn Daily Union and one anonymously in a book called A Masque of Poets. After her death, her sister and T.W. Higginson put together a volume for publication which came out in November 1890. The poem in this volume came out in the August issue of Scribner's making it the first poem to be published after her death. Please email with questions or to request photos.…
