"The traits of an ardent, fearless personality, expressed in words of
fire, are here again in all their lyrical richness.... The poet says:
'I sing my songs to you--and well,
You'll maybe like them--who can tell?'
We do like them."--_Daily Chronicle_.
"When, in the terse vernacular of his calling, he gives voice to the
sorrows and impatience, the humour and the resignation of his workmen
comrades, and lets his songs find their own natural bent, then at
length he attains real lyrical strength and sincerity.... For we need
have no hesitation in hailing Mr. MacGill as a poet."--_Sunday Times_.
