A long poem of a tree that remembers its life in the forest before humans cut it down. It recalls being the pride of the north, then losing its trunk and limbs to loggers who transform the wood into paper, packaging, or a banknote. The piece ends with the tree contemplating its future as a magazine print or currency.
Potter Lamb counsels Miss Richmond who funds a social misstep by a local elder and arranges a receipt for a donation tied to a marriage proposal. The denouement sees mutual interest as the two officers of law and courtship begin a closer connection. The scene ends with the line about being named after a pocket handkerchief.
An Australian Aboriginal story explains turtle origins with Wayambeh’s rescue of Oolah the Lizard-woman and her children. After battle, Wayambeh escapes by diving into a river and transforming into a tunic, then remains hidden underwater with his shield on his back.
