The poems have been annotated so as to provide readers with knowledge of selected textual variations found in other versions, cross-references to Newman\u27s numerous other works, cross-references to biblical sources, as well as glosses for difficult terms. The textual variants presented are not exhaustive; however, they have been chosen as representing the most significant of the changes Newman made to his poems, and as being most worthy of commentary; The introduction provides readers with an overview of Newman\u27s life in relation to his poetry, discussion of the poems themselves, as well as the editorial methods used for this edition
