Letters suggests that the Sydney Domain on a Sunday afternoon is a combination of the Roman Forum and Circus, encompassing both political speakers of the Forum and the 'queer, non-political speakers' of the Circus, represented in modern times by the 'purveyors of fads, nostrums, and weird religions'. Letters describes his own experiences as a speaker in both Hyde Park in London and the Domain and suggests that, whatever Australia's future, the Domain will endure.
