LastShadow, that's an interesting theory!

I put out a few feelers after reading your post and I received this message in reply.

Hi

Millay did in fact write "First Fig"; the other story is a common but

I have replied, asking him if he knows where this story originated and by whom. This is fascinating.

Do you write poetry, LastShadow? What a lovely name, I'm just fascinated by the names on SI, I'm sure everyone has a rich symbolic meaning attached to their name.
