"Copyright 1915. Lennox Robinson."

"This play was first performed at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, on the 10th February, 1915 ..."

"There is fact in this play and there is fancy, and only the students of those dreamining days will know where the one merges with the other. He is scarcely likely to approve this attempt to recapture the emotion of an historical episode by means that are very often unhistorical; to his trained mind any study of Robert Emmet's insurrection which ignores Owen Kirwan, Anne Devlin and many another is unworthy of serious consideration. But selection and rejection of incidents and characters is the beginning and end of all playmaking ..."--Lennox Robinson.
