Louisa Lawson was an Australian poet and writer born in 1848 and who passed away in 1920. She is remembered as a suffragist and feminist, as well as the mother of the famous author Henry Lawson. She founded The Dawn Club, a center for suffragist activity in Sydney in the late 1880s.
‘The Hour is Come’ offers a heroic view of womanhood and celebrates those who are willing to fight for their rights and beliefs.
How did she fight? She fought well.
How did she light? Ah, she fell.
Why did she fall? God, who knows all,
Only can tell.
