		The story inspired a ballad that Neilson worried about publishing: 'The main trouble is that many people would misunderstand this and think that I am a red-ragger.' He had strong political views, but was reticent about them, as about other things we nowadays want to know: sex, transgression and insanity.
		Neilson's own hard roving was the shell that protected the delicate truth of his art.
