An Olio
a miscellany of thoughts

London Bombings

In contemplating the events of yesterday, I am reminded of a few of the words of a well-known British anthem:

Still more majestic shalt thou rise,
More dreadful, from each foreign stroke,
More dreadful, more dreadful from each foreign stroke
As the loud blast that tears the skies,
Serves but to root thy native oak.

Rule Britannia!
Britannia rule the waves.
Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.
