I went last Monday, you must know,

With Tina, Mrs. S., and Clarry,

To see the Temple flower-show,

And, best of all, to lunch with Harry!

We saw the gardens—'twould be sport

To make the Benchers play lawn-tennis—

And chambers in a dingy court

Where Fanny Bolton nursed Pendennis:

The rooms where Goldsmith lived and died,

The sycamore where Johnson prated;
