The poem is divided into six movements: "Let us go then" (lines 1-22); "And indeed there will be time" (lines 23-48); "For I have known them all already" (lines 48-74); "And the afternoon, the evening" (lines 75-110); "No! I am not Prince Hamlet" (lines 111-119); and "I grow old..." (lines 120-131). The work was composed for and dedicated to tenor Richard Barrett. |
