Greene was a rabid enthusiast and cheerleader for S&O, being so extremely impressed by their production of *Monsignor Quixote* he immediately contacted them about publishing a second work, which would be the present collection of poetry. Greene remarked, 'I owe my warmest thanks to Sylvester & Orphanos for the three limited editions of my work which they have published ... I was happy too to have my various verses in a volume - a first edition of any poems of mine since my first book which was Babbling April, of which I am rather ashamed. I am not ashamed of the volume they have published' (Dan Luckenbill, Sylvester & Orphanos: Catalog of an Exhibit, UCLA 1990). FINE.
