Here you will find the Poem London of poet Francis William Lauderdale Adams

London

CRUEL City, London, London,
Where, duped slaves of devils' creeds,
Men and women desperate, undone,
Dream such dreams, and do such deeds:
London, London, cruel city,
By day serpent, by night vampire ?
God, in thy great pity, pity,
Give us light ? though it be fire!
