Chitrangada [1]

Months ago I typed out, from the last two numbers (I think) of The Karmayogin, part of a poem by you called Chitrangada. Is it possible to get the whole of it from you, so that I could type it for you as well as for the library and myself?

The publication of Chitrangada was a mistake. I wrote the poem hastily – a rough draught, intending to rewrite it and make it worth something. But the rewriting was never done. I am not very anxious for the thing to survive in its present crude form.
