I'm trying to track down the bibliographical information for an English translation of Pushkin's "The Bronze Horseman." I have a photocopy of the poem, given to me by a colleague several semesters ago. It's a solid prose translation and I'd like to include it in a course reader for a fall class, but I don't know the translator, publisher, year, etc. Here are the clues I can provide:
1. text begins on page 247 and ends on 257
2. On page 247 the text begins with "THE BRONZE HORSEMAN" in all caps. Under that is written "A Tale of St Petersburg" (in italics) and under that appears the word "Introduction," in a smaller font and also in italics. 
3. The first two lines of the translation read: "On a shore washed by desolate waves, he stood. / Full of high thoughts, and gazed into the distance."

Thanks in advance, SEELANGers, for your collective wisdom.
