BOOK EIGHT

The Book of Death

The Book of Death was taken from Canto Three of an early version of Savitri which had only six cantos and an epilogue. It was slightly revised at a late stage and a number of new lines were added, but it was never fully worked into the final version of the poem. Its original designation “Canto Three”, has been retained as a reminder of this.
