Notes

  • Epigraph: 'This clay, this dream-sown sod, this chemic earth, / This wizard dust, wherein all shapes of birth, - / Soft flowers, great beasts, and huge pathetic kings, / Small seeds of wonder, fill a needle's girth.' / Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. Trans. Richard Le Gallienne.
  • Author's note: Acknowledgments to The Woman's Mirror, The Western Mail, Pertinent, Cummins and Campbell's Monthly, The Brisbane Telegraph, and the Australian Broadcasting Commission, by whom most of these works were first made public.
