This record is for the 1950 Macmillan edition. Care should be taken when merging similar titles as multiple, different versions have appeared under this title.

A posthumous edition of Yeats's poems, including previously-unpublished ones. This edition, or the version of it published in 1956 as "the definitive edition with the author's final revisions", has been the point of reference for most later commentary on and reprints of the poems. Data is largely from A Commentary on the Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats by Alexander Norman Jeffares (1968), supplemented by Worldcat and Warren Wedin's William Butler Yeats Seminar Homepage. Only speculative-fiction-related poems have been listed.
