Quotes

 * As I came down the Highgate Hill, The Highgate Hill, the Highgate Hill, As I came down the Highgate Hill I met the sun's bravado, And saw below me, fold on fold, Grey to pearl and pearl to gold, This London like a land of old, The land of Eldorado.
 * London, from Romances (1917). Compare: Alfred Noyes, Go down to Kew in Lilac-time.
