On the front endpaper in Stephen Vincent Benet's hand is quite a lovely and romantic six-line poem (unsigned) dated 11 January 1942 (again in Roman numerals).
We have not been able to discern the source of the poem, and there is at least some reason, given the depth of feeling in the presentation, to surmise that it may be unpublished.

During that time I had the habit of pretending when I went to sleep that I was lying full-length in a convent chapel before a dark altar, with its tiny light.
I saw the limbs glimmer and I heard the sighing come From this side and from that, as our host ran dumb Over a silver shining plain, to some strange end, to some-- Was it goal or heaven or city?--some agonizing gleam That broke the heart for pity and made the eyes stream.
