Excerpt from The Phantom Journal: And Other Essays and DiversionsIf I were William Cowper, Esq., of Olney, I should put the following questions into melodious and easily-memorized verse but instead they are in prose. Who is it, when we are lost, that tells us the way, always extending an arm as he does so? The policeman. Who is it that knows where the nearest Chemist's is? The policeman. Who, when we are in danger of being run over if we cross the road, lifts a hand like a York ham and cleaves a path for us The policeman. At night, when we have lost the latch-key, who is it that effects an entrance (i borrow his own terminology) through a window? The policeman. The tale of his benefactions is endless.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
