Edgar Allan Poe: To Helen

2. Notes About This Poem

"To Helen!' (Mrs. S. Helen Whitman) was not published until November, 1848, although written several months earlier. It first appeared in the "Union Magazine," and with the omission, contrary to the knowledge or desire of Poe, of the line, "Oh, Heaven!- oh, God!- how my heart beats in coupling those two words."
