Poem by Thomas Hood

On the Statues in Trafalgar Square

If Nelson looks down on a couple of Kings,
	However it pleases the Loyals; 
’Tis after the fashion of nautical things,
	A sky-scraper over the Royals.

1. The Boy at the Nore
2. The Two Peacocks of Bedfont
3. Stanzas (Is there a bitter pang for love removed)
4. The Two Swans
5. Ode on a Distant Prospect of Clapham Academy
