Notes

  • Dedication: To my Son, John Irwin Moore, I dedicate this small book in praise of the beautiful and friendly City of Sydney, which we both love so well! Ivy Moore.

    The city streets are starred with violets, So dewy, fresh and sweetly scented, With golden daffodils. Spring's amulets, The city streets are starred with violets. Like blossoming purple coronets To crown fair Sydney's brow contented. The city streets are starred with violets, So dewey, fresh and sweetly scented.
