Notes

  • Published by subscription, 200 copies. The Australian poems from this volume were reprinted by Mulini Press as "Adelaide" : And Other Poems of South Australia (1992).
  • Epigraph: We may paint sorrow, - but all terms are weak, The boundless rapture of the breasts to speak. The breaking heart's sad tale few words may tell, But who th' o'erflowing tide of joy shall swell, If one dull word dissolves th' enchanting spell? - The Fair Estelle.
  • First book of poems written by a woman to be published in Australia.
