Dedica autografa dell'autore ad un importante letterato italiano, datata 14 Gennaio 1972 (Inscribed and signed by the Author to an important Italian poet, dated 14th January 1972)

Note: This section of the Cantos derives its name from the title of a review by Wyndham Lewis of The Letters of Ezra Pound -A64b- in the New Statesman and Nation for 7 April 1951: ''The Rock Drill'', itself a reference to Jacob Epstein's sculpture of that title of 1915-1916 (Gallup).
