Excerpt from The Western Track: And Other Verses
Reviewers of these pieces must not forget I present them as verses, not poems. I'm too well aware of what has been and ought to be done in metre to over rate my productions, which are now valuable to me only as means to an end. Thereafter, I trust to ac complish in prose what 1 have not, through adverse circumstances, even approached in verse. But such little encouragement is shown to a n Author in A us tralia th at he writes almost without hope of seeing his work in print. To manipulate a clever swindle would pay him better in this world.
