The Caliph was a holy man, and he thought long and deeply about the sad state of the infidel dogs, who knew not the sanctified glories of Constantinople. Musing thus, and ...
... For nearly two hundred years the old Cathedral clock has been looking down upon busy or slumbering London life. Its face has seemed smiles or frowns to millions who have looked up into it from Ludgate ascent, and it, in its turn, has regarded with stern stolidity many a passing show and pageantry.
