Mary Balmanno was an early feminist. Born in Derbyshire, England she was the wife of a transplanted Scot, Robert Balmanno. The Balmannos traveled n the literary and artistic circles of Britain, and likewise those of the United States after they immigrated in 1831. Mary was the author of verse and prose on Scottish subjects, and a talented artist who had at least two exhibits. The poem appears later, with a few changes, in her book "Pen and Pencil" (1858), page 259.
