In this edition, Yeats' early narrative poems are in a separate section at the end. Elsewhere the order of poems remains largely undisturbed. Changes arise in the inclusion of new poems, some textual emendations and the relocation of certain poems withheld from publication in the poet's lifetime.
The 18 plays are: The Shadowy Waters; Cathleen in Houlihan; The Hour Glass; On Baile's Strabd; The Green Helmet; Deirdre; At the Hawk's Well; The Dreaming of the Bones; The Cat and the Moon; The Only Jealousy of Emer; Calvary; Sophocles' King Oedipus; The Resurrection; The Words Upon the Windwo-FPane; The King of the Great Clock Tower; The herne's Egg; Purgatory; The Death of Cuchulain.
