Notes

  • Epigraph: 'Still achieving, still pursuing, / Learn to labour and to wait.' - Longfellow
  • Author's note: In his Preface to the work, the poet states that he aims to express his admiration of the 'sublime beauty of the natural graces' of Tasmania. He claims that the subjects of his poems are varied and 'have been selected from different parts of the island, thus making the collection as comprehensive as possible'.
