| Paratext Text | - Pieter de Hooch, 1659 (for Gordon Woods) |
| Notes | Originally published in The Hunt By Night (1982). The last stanza refers to friends "dreaming of war", presumably in Northern Ireland but not specified. The Dutch painting and context also imply a wider, international context. |
