And if I write for England, who will read ? As if, when moons of Ramazan recede, Some fatuous angel-porter should deposit His perfect wine within the privy closet ! “ What do they know, who only England know ? ” Only what England paints its face to show.

I was fed on bread and water ; during playhours I worked in the school- room ; during work-hours I walked solitary round and round the playground.
