Critical reception
On its original publication in Australia The Australasian stated that "...it is apparent that Kendall is as essentially Australian as Burns is Scotch or Bryant American. His soul has been nurtured amid the silent solemnity of the Australian bush, and his sweetest utterances are framed in giving voice to its solitudes.."
