Gaspe Toujours and Jeff Hyde had lain down in the tent the night of the great wind, and had gone to sleep at once.

William Morris tried it in Trafalgar Square, to his sorrow; but in Hyde Park, if you think you have a message, London will let you give it. But this is not considered good form, and the "Best Society" listen to no speeches in the park. However, there are signs that Aristotle's outdoor school may come back.

Cheere dealt largely in painted leaden figures, then much employed in 'the art of creating landscape. He was 'the man at Hyde Park Corner' of whom Lord Ogleby in the comedy makes mention when he says: 'Great improvements, indeed, Mr. Sterling! Wonderful improvements!
