'Describes Gipps' feelings on hearing of his recall.' (Webby)

Notes

  • 'The following paraphrase of "My Name is Norval," was picked up by a friend of mine on Macquarie-street, and supposed to be part of what Sir George Gipps intended to say at the opening of the Council; its loss will account for the brevity of his speech. - A Subscriber' (At head of poem)
