Excerpt from Cross Views

I AM glad to think that the position of the Cockney has weakened. His champions are mostly gathered to their fathers, and each generation of them has fallen further from their high estate. Gog and Magog are pasteboard scarecrows. Dr. Johnson tired of life though he never tired of London. The apologetics of Lamb followed the ascendancy of Mitre Court, and latter-day and literary enthusiasts for the town live in lodgings far west of Charing Cross, and their proofs are posted after them into the wilds.
