Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fleet Street: And Other Poems Wisps and rags of cloud In a withered sky, A strip of pallid azure, at either end, Above the Ludgate obelisk above, The Temple griffin, widening with the width Below, and parallel with the street that counts Seven hundred paces of tesselated road From Ludgate Circus west to Chancery Lane: By concrete pavement flanked and precipice Of windowed fronts on this side and on that, A thoroughfare of everything that hastes, The sullen tavern-loafers notwithstanding And hawkers in the channel hunger-bit. Interfluent night and day the tides of trade, Labour and pleasure, law and crime, are sucked From every urban quarter: through this strait All business London pours. Amdist the boom And thud of wheel and hoof the myriad feet Are silent save to him who stands a while And hearkens till his passive ear, attuned To new discernment like an erudite Musician´s, which can follow note by note The part of any player even in the din About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
