Poems by Henry Lawson
Take It Fightin
... ) When youre down an out an utter, ...
The Australian Marseillaise
... Crumbling now, they should not trust them, ...
The Heart of the Swag
... There were farewells that should have been said for the last time, ...
'Broken Axletree'
... And the hell for which we bartered horse and trap and traps and tent! ...
The Sorrows of a Simple Bard
... Blouse-sleeves back from white arms clingingclinging while she will not yield, ...
The Stringy-Bark Tree
... Though you ride through long gullies a twelve months youll see ...
Second Class wait here
... " And the others seemed like burglars, slouched and muffled to the throats, ...
Robbie's Statue
... They knew one verse of Auld Lang Syne ...
Nemesis
... Ah, we well might howl for vengeance, we who killed for killings sake ...
The Hymn of the Socialists
... But we swear to strike eer that time has birth with the whole of our gathered might! ...
Hawkers
... Where the tailboard clings to the tucker and things ...
Trouble on the Selection
... Hell eat till he gets blown on that ...
'Everyone's Friend'
... ) Still by the nick-name he is known ...
Out on the Roofs of Hell
... For the credit is short and the flour is low ...
The Old Stockman's Lament
... With their tails sticking out of their trunks ...
