LONDON;

BEING AN ACCURATE

HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION

OF THE

BRITISH METROPOLIS

AND ITS

NEIGHBOURHOOD,

TO

THIRTY MILES EXTENT,

From an actual Perambulation.

By DAVID HUGHSON, LL.D. pend.
Pugh, Edwards

VOL. I.

Nurse of Art! The CITY rear'd

In beauteous Pride her Tower encircled Head,
And, stretching Street on Street, by Thousands drew,
From twining woody Haunts, or the tough Yew

To bows strong straining, her aspiring Sons.

Then Commerce brought into the public Walk
The busy Merchant; the big Warehouse built;

Rais'd the strong Crane; choak'd up the loaded Street
With Foreign Plenty; and thy Stream, O Thames,
Large, gentle, deep, majestic, King of Floods!
Chose for his grand Resort!

THOMSON.
