"On the French Shore of Cape Breton" and "The Privilege" were first published in The Atlantic Monthly, while "La Rose Witnesseth of La Belle Mélanie" is reprinted from "Amédée's Son" (Chapters VIII and IX) with the kind permission of the publishers, Houghton Mifflin Company.
"At a Breton Calvaire" was first published in The Williams Literary Monthly during undergraduate days, and was rewritten several times during the next few years. The final form is the one used here, except for the last stanza, which is a combination of the two versions now extant.
