YE who love the haunts of Town-Life,

Love the kennel and the gutter,

Love the doorway of the gin-shop,

Love the mud about the kerb-stones,

And the drippings from the houses,

And the splashing of the rain-spouts

Through their palisade of gratings,

And the thunder of the coaches,

Whose innumerable echoes,

Roar like sea-waves on the shingle;—
