Notes

  • Epigraph: Glory to God, who so the world hath framed That in all places children more abound Than they by whom Humanity is shamed! Children out-number men; and millions die - Who know not this? - in blameless infancy Sowing with Innocence our sin-stained ground. Aubrey De Vere (t.p.)
  • Dedication: To The Reader O be thy portion God alone, And thy pure heart His holy throne. For so thy soul, joy's dwelling-place, Resplendent with the pearls of grace, Shall, as a victor in the strife, Be blessed in heaven with endless life.
  • Epigraph: Plain and holy innocence. The Tempest
