Pound poems

As promised, here are the Pound poems that we are going to cover:

• Mauberley (1920)
• Hugh Selwyn Mauberley
• Cantos: 1, 2, 3, 9, 13, 38
• The River-merchant's Wife: A Letter
• The Garden
• The Coming of War
• Sestina: Altaforte
• Portrait d'une Femme
• In a Station of the Metro

I'm working off the New Directions Paperbook edition of Selected Poems of Ezra Pound, but you should feel free to work from any edition. Be wary of some of the on-line versions of the poems which are not always reliable.
