Notes

  • Robert Richardson's poem 'Annette' (published in Willow and Wattle) was the source of lines carved by Mark Twain (with some judicious alterations) on his wife Olivia's tombstone: as such, they have sometimes been identified as by Twain.

    Source: 'A Beautiful Epitaph', Sydney Morning Herald, 13 June 1931, p.8.
