Large 8vo. Pp. ix, 100. Frontis. Harwood illustration. Illustrated with an additional eleven Harwood plates. Black cloth, titles stamped in silver on the cover and spine. Edges untrimmed. Cover edges and spine titles rubbed, bottom edge damp stained. Endpapers a tad age-toned. In the Harwood illustrated dust jacket repeating one of the plates, printed black on silver-gray, $4.00 jacket flap price intact. Jacket edges rubbed with shallow, chips and creases. Old cello tape repairs to jacket verso. Please see photos. Poems reflecting the eastern mysticism that inspired St. Denis, a pioneer of modern dance. She embarked on a solo career in 1905; in 1915, Los Angeles, she co-founded the Denishawn School of Dancing with Ted Shawn. In 1927, when they opened a New York branch, illustrator Ruth Harwood became an intimate member of their troupe. Indeed, St. Denis credits Harwood for editing her poems.
