Excerpt from Igdrasil, Vol. 3: A Quarterly Magazine and Review of Literature, Art, and Social Philosophy; The Journal of the Reading Guild and Kindred Societies; June 1891 to March 1892
Ark! The Christmas bells ring round! Many light hearts with joy abound! They come and go upon the wind, Peace and goodwill to all mankind!
Where bleared faces of mean houses Lean as if to touch each other, Where idle, ugly vice carouses, And the brown fogs choke and smother, In a room confined, dun, damp.
