Rosiga dikt, hur din gamla myt fyller varenda vinkel! Ullas triumf och Mollbergs skryt, Movitz´ hosta och finkel. Allting är kvar i gränden här under vindruvsskylten. Skuggorna skråla. Mörkret svär. Se vad raglande bylten. Trött på det dumma Östermalm, längtar jag hit om kvällen. Här är mitt hjärta, här min psalm, här finns det näringsställen. Grå är min dag. Jag prisar er, kära bröder och systrar. Från sin olymp ser Bellman ner, nickar milt och lystrar.
