“To stand on common ground
here and there gritty with pebbles

uncommon fine for ploughing
there to labor
planting the vegetable words”

“In those rare days, the press was seldom known to snarl or bark,
But sweetly sang of men in powr, like any tuneful lark;
Grave judges, too, to all their evil deeds were in the dark;
And not a man in twenty score knew how to make his mark.
Oh the fine old English Tory times;”
—Charles Dickens (18121890)
