Place me in lowly state, in power and pride,
Where lour the skies, or where bland zephyrs play
Place me where blind night rules, or
lengthened
day,
In age mature, or in youth's boiling tide:
Place me in heaven, or in the abyss profound,
On lofty height, or in low vale obscure,
A spirit freed, or to the body bound;
Bank'd with the great, or all unknown to fame,
I still the same will be!

The literary reflec- tions of Dostoyevsky's visit to London are found in his travel feature Winter Notes on Summer Impressions (1863), a text in which the author makes fun, among other things, of the "ser- geant-majors of civilization," the hothouse character of the "orangery progressivists," and
articulates
his fear of the Baalish triumphalism of the World Exhibition palace.

In your foul tresses a mournful tempest
Beneath the fatal boredom my kisses pour:

Under curtains alien to remorse, I ask of your bed,
Sleep you can savour after your dark deceits,
You who know more of Nothingness than the dead.
