After St.
Petersburg, Saint Giles’ Street
Today we’re visiting Russia with a friend
Perhaps a Russia that never really was
Ideas, tea, and holy earth; just now
We’re asking a blessing from Father Zosima
Tomorrow we’re off to England, all of us
Perhaps an England that never really was
Ideas, tea, and holy earth; and soon
We’ll stroll through Oxford with poems on our lips
And exchange Shakespearean bon mots
With the Commie barmaid at the Eagle and Child
