His first volume of verse, The Travels of Prince Legion, and Other Poems, was published in 1857 before he left England.
In Sydney he produced further books of poetry, Poems (1865), The Goal of Time (1883), and Beyond: And Other Poems (1887). His principal prose works are One Teacher: One Law (1883) and Genesis and the Beatitudes (1887).
