THE HOUR OF THE DRAGON (verse heading, appearances apart from the story)
The verse heading did not appear in the original publication. Instead, it was first used with the story in the Berkeley editions.
The original typescript that contained the poem was set up as a formal first page, with his return address and word count, AND a notice of retained American rights, and no text beyond the poem.
As this is the original first page, it appears that perhaps this page got separated from the rest of the text and hence was not included when it was sent in to WEIRD TALES, perhaps intentionally
.
