§ This poem, ‘To Ulysses’, is not the feeblest verse about him written by an English poet. Swinburne, Meredith and Elizabeth Barrett Browning wrote even more gushing lines.

Along the walls of the Mole’s burrow are ‘brackets carrying plaster statuary – Garibaldi, and the infant Samuel, and Queen Victoria, and other heroes of modern Italy’.
