Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Lament, beside an Acequia, for the Wife of Awa-tsireh
By Yvor Winters
 
TWO caballeros,
Smooth in the valley,
Laughed—their horses bucked.
The summer foaming.
 
San Ildefonso        5
In colors
Faint as dust—
Flower-dripping dancers—
One cannot think
So far away.        10
 
And thinking,
Women die,
O Awa-tsireh!
 
The faded roads
May never move.        15
