This poem was published in the Australian Workman,27 December 1890, after the defeat of the workers in the Maritime Strike. It was also published as 'A Vision of the Future', in Brisbane Worker,7 March 1891 during the Shearers' Strike. It is reproduced in my book on the Maritime Strike, The Sinews of War. Brady worked for Dalgety's at the time of the Maritime Strike, but was dismissed after refusing to serve as a special constable.
