Footnote
The transcription from ‘Glen Eyre’ reads: 'My life running to the seas through heather, bracken and bad grass, on its fanked eerie course, like the mean and shallow stream that was taking its meagre way through a green patch to the sea in the Kyle. But again and again a spring tide came to put beauty on the river foot, to fill its destination with richness, and sea trout and white-bellied salmon came to taste the water of the high hills with flood-tide in Inver Eyre'.
