We're dipping into a booklet published in 1965 and called 'More Poems of Man', a collection of poems by Barbara Cowley of Peel, with other poems by her son and her sister. There must have been an earlier 'Poems of Man', but whilst that's not to hand, there are other poems which appear in the Peel City Guardian, so it's likely that they made up the earlier collection.

In our translation of Bram Stoker's Dracula into the Manx Gaelic, Jonathan Harker is getting agitated about wasting time, but Professor Van Helsing explains the difficulty about breaking into a house in Picadilly but suggests how they'd best handle it in a positive way.
