Here you will find the Poem I came to live in Sophia Street of poet Lesbia Harford

I came to live in Sophia Street

I came to live in Sophia Street, 
In a little house in Sophia Street 
With an inch of floor 
Between door and door 
And a yard you'd measure in children's feet. 
When I'd been ten days in Sophia Street 
I remembered its name was Wisdom Street; 
For I'd learned much more 
Than in all the score 
Of years I clamoured for books to eat.
