Peter Ackroyd Quote
From what Purse are we building these Churches, Walter?From the Imposicion on Coles.And are the Coles not the blackest Element, which with their Smoak hide the Sunne?Certainly they feed the Fires of this City, says he.And where is the Light and Easinesse there? Since we take our Revenues from the Under-world, what does it Signifie if we also Build upon the Dead?
