Notes

  • Launched by Phil Glendenning at 37- 47 St John's Rd., Glebe, New South Wales, 25 March, 2008.
  • Epigraph: 'The Leaden-Eyed' Let not young souls be smothered out before/ They do quaint deeds and fully flaunt their pride./ It is the world's one crime its babes grow dull,/ Its poor are ox-like, limp and leaden-eyed./ Not that they starve; but starve so dreamlessly, /Not that they sow, but that they seldom reap, / Not that they serve, but have no gods to serve,/ Not that they die, but that they die like sheep. Vachel Lindsay (1879-1931)
  • Author's note: To Betty and Tony Whelan and to Ann, Anthony, Dominic, Gemma, Kieran, Mary and Pauline
