GEORGE ROBERT SIMS
English journalist, author and dramatist
(1847 - 1922)

The way was long and weary,
  But gallantly they strode,
    A country lad and lassie,
      Along the heavy road.
        The night was dark and stormy,
          But blithe of heart were they,
            For shining in the distance
              The lights of London lay.
                O gleaming lights of London, that gem of the city's crown;
                  What fortunes be within you, O Lights of London Town!
      - a song in "Lights of London" [London]

It is Christmas Day in the Workhouse.
      - In the Workhouse--Christmas Day
        [Books (First Lines)]

Lor', but women's rum cattle to deal with, the first man found that to his cost,
  And I reckon it's just through a woman the last man on earth'll be lost.
      - Moll Jarvis o' Morley [Women]
