Busy shops and tradesmen’s houses,

Office, inn, and people’s houses,

Cottage white and mansion costly,

Structures high and structures lowly,

Marked the once secluded valley,

Graced the once sequestered hillside.

By and by the streets were fashioned

From the model of McAdam,

And adorned the youthful city.

Richmond, Mulberry, and Paulding,
