Poems - by Sorencia, No. 1, single work column

The Sydney Monitor's correspondent contends that: 'However inferior the Colony of New South Wales may be considered in National importance, or in her commercial or other relations, when placed in a balance with other countries, no one, perhaps, will contend that she has not reached, in intellectual culture, and particularly in one department of literature, a degree of advancement far beyond her years'. The writer is referring to the output of Australia's poets. Having compared America's output with that of Australia, the writer commends the compositions of Henry Halloran and then suggests that the colony possesses other writers of merit, among them Sorencia, 'the author of a small publication of original, and many of them, very beautiful poems'.
