For a considerable number of years I had been a resident in London, which city I regarded alternately as my Paradise and my House of Bondage.

But even Horace loved the olive-groves of Tivoli more than the far-ranged splendours of the Palatine; and I may be pardoned if an occasional vision of green fields often left my eye insensitive to metropolitan attraction
