Flush-cut limp textured cloth [with the cover title 'Australia. By Clow the Younger']; a fine copy. Poems structured loosely as a play. The third scene of the first poem, 'Vive l'Australie!' (3 pages) features 'Blacks in Pheasant plumage, assembled to celebrate the feast of Nyarrin; which marks the first appearance of that group [the Pleiades] on the sky'. The second poem, 'La Mythologie de l'Australie' (6 pages) is subtitled 'Native Legend'. Not in Greenway, not in Depasquale, but Miller is informative.
