Glad urchins bob about like bladders;

The fly is cast from Wapping pier,

And over the Pool's pellucid weir

Salmon go leaping up their ladders.

I dream how Covent's gritty bowers

(By leave of Mallaby's line) shall wear a

Fat smile to greet the sunnier hours

For joy of battles fought with flowers,

As it might be in Bordighera.

New Bond Streets on the Surrey side
