Heart of London
An ever-muttering prisoned storm,
The heart of London beating warm.
John Davidson, "Ballads and Songs"
A collection of short essays, originally published in The Daily Express newspaper. The writer was a journalist on staff, and also a renowned travel writer.
LONDON'S GROWTH
Here Herbs did grow
And Flowers sweet
But now 'tis called
Saint George's Street.
—An 18th century inscription on a London tavern
When a man is tired of London he is tired of life: for there is in London all that life can afford.
