Thank you all for the temporary solution to my problem arising from an ambitious effort to understand Table 12.12 in David Cox's book Primes of the form x^2+ny^2. As Prof Cremona has stated the existence of *only* four perfect cubes on the imaginary axis is to be discussed under an appropriate topic head.
