Peal from the lips that men have worshipped so:

'Pass quickly on, or buy!'

A labyrinth of beauty, sweet to see!

The proud Guinness, the noted Wheeler—all

Our much-belauded London galaxy,

Protecting each a stall.

Sweet forms, fair faces, everywhere the same;

And many a withered flower and trinket old

I purchased recklessly, till joy became

A solemn scorn of gold.
