During the vote for the increase in student fees, outside the palace of Westminster the students expressed their anger. 
The street of the definite article
The strand.
The one two the iambic chaos
The rush through it, on it and under it
The busy busy
The buses the bridges the protests
The lawyers the law courts the justice,
The cafes, the authors
The Dickens, the Thackery the Makepeace
The temple inn
