of a spider web. The hand-drawn poem title appears above the text, hanging from threads
at the top of the web. The web extends
across the full illustration. It is affixed to leafy branches, which form a full border
around the poem page. The spider stands on
its web at the bottom-right corner of the page. A prominent branch descends from the
top-left corner and stretches across the top of
the page. It partially obscures the full moon in the distance. The background is darkly
shaded. Full page.
