Synopsis
Excerpt from Land, Labour, and Gold; Or Two Years in Victoria, Vol. 1 of 2: With Visits to Sydney and Van Diemen's Land
Adds [mo - the thunder of the cradles, the bottles sown broad cast over the land, with other happy touches of the sort, and one divinely felicitous phrase, - 'the sentences measled with oaths and indelicate expressions.' In short, I have taken from you far more than I could have taken with decency if our two works had not been heterogeneous. As it is, I hope you are too candid and too good-natured to grudge me, who can never hope to see that wonderful land, a few colours from your palette. A traveller with a painter's eye is a rarity. He must make up his mind to teach the artists of the pen as well as the public.
