Our Æon, with Promethean joy:—

A joy from central darkness mined.

Of regions haunted by the Hun;

Thence baled with cost of countless gold

To Lambeth's marish, and in mould

Of seeming-waxen tapers run:

Whose radiance is as that of moons

Innumerous, making day of night;

With most intensity of light,

Emblazing fashion's gay saloons.
