Pencil draft of the second version of the verse play, containing unused lines. On a torn half-sheet of papger which is muddy, creased and worn and in some places illegible. Isaac Rosenberg abandoned work on 'The Amulet' in July of 1917, and used many lines of the former verse play for 'The Unicorn'.
