George Campbell
History Makers Women stone breakers Hammers and rocks Tired child makers
Haphazard frocks.
Strong thigh Rigid head Bent nigh Hard white piles
Of stone Under hot sky In the gully bed.
II No smiles No sigh No moan.
Ill Women child bearers
Pregnant frocks Wilful toil sharers
Destiny shapers History makers Hammers and rocks.
