Saturday commute clxx: Remembered sentences






      I can give no adequate account of
      the subtle poetry of such reminis-
      censes; it depends upon associations
      of which we have often lost the thread.

      Such is the colour of the interior glow
      of clubs in Pall Mall, which I positive-
      ly like best when the fog loiters upon
      their monumental staircases.
