“Holland is a dream, Monsieur, a dream of gold and smoke-smokier by day, more gilded by night. And night and day that dream is peopled with Lohengrins like these, dreamily riding their black bicycles with high handle-bars, funereal swans constantly drifting throughout the whole country, around the seas, along the canals.”

“A mighty mass of brick, and smoke, and shipping, Dirty and dusty, but as wide as eye Could reach, with here and there a sail just skipping In sight, then lost amidst the forestry Of masts; a wilderness of steeples peeping On tiptoe through their sea-coal canopy; A huge, dun cupola, like a fools-cap crown On a fool's head - and there is London Town.”

Eye Lost Sea Huge Fool Mass Sight Towns Wide London Smoke Dirty Wilderness Crowns Sail Coal Bricks Here And There Caps Shipping Tiptoes Masts Peeping Canopy Steeples

Author:Lord Byron

“Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind, Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, Let me forget about today until tomorrow.”

Mind Hands Today Past Memories Forget Fate Tree Sea Sky Crazy Tomorrow Sorrow Let Me Wave Driven Rings Ruins Smoke Beach Sand Frightened Take Me Diamond Frozen Twisted Circus Of My Mind Windy
