MANIFESTO

    My Sheaf is small ⋯ but it is green.

    I will gather into my Sheaf all the young fresh things I can—pictures,
verses, ballads of love and war; tales of pirates and the sea.

    You will find ballads of the old world in my Sheaf. Are they not
green for ever ⋯

    Ripe ears are good for bread, but green ears are good for pleasure.

    I hope you will have my Sheaf in your house and like it.

    It will stay fresh and green then.

    There will be thirteen Numbers in the year, printed on Hand-made
paper, and the Subscription will be Thirteen shillings annually, post free.
Single Copies may be had at Thirteen pence each.
