At the police station in Hayward's Heath, on a certain Monday in July, Mr. Pollen obtained a licence to peddle poetry, and with a knapsack full of broadsheets of his own poetry he Set- out to test the market for his wares. The plan was to walk from shire to shire, paying his way as he went by selling his verse at sii9seace a sheet, hoping to take 4s. 8d. aday,and to live on, that slender return, eked out by the kindness of men. With an eye for huidscape, and a palate for beer, and a heart (sometimes a fainting heart) for the road, he made his way from Sussex to Land's End, and back to Sussex again.
