As I gaze out from my window Brian what do I see..
Ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie
Open unto the fields and to the sky;
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
....well okay, but I see ships anyway, thats for sure, the theatres and the temples no alas, none to be seen. The smokeless air, well thats another story..you have to allow for some artistic license.
Yes we had an outbreak of the literaries on the frontpage
fetching forth master lines from John Masefield and Mathew Arnold.
The one above is??...well ye cant have a quiz anymore because of search engines so its by William Wordsworth and he was speaking of the view from Westminster Bridge. Had this one drummed into me at school 2 million years ago and I can still quote it off the top of my head as I can with others. It shows what a good religious beating can do for you !!! aaarrrgh dont remind me
