Dining alone, his dinner is a work of art And, dining out, his wit turns meal to festival. Always himself, cool, easy, careless, nonchalant, Whether he helps a fair Princess to strawberries (bright eyes may languish under Royal eyelashes) Or heads a merry crew to Richmond, wondering Which they like best, the Heidseck or the nightingales. Alouette. - Papa, I should so like to know a Londoner. The Comedy of Dreams. LL roads lead to Rome. It might have been true Once, that saying.
