Straight down the Crooked Lane, and all round the Square

Thomas Hood was a renowned English poet and humorist known for his clever wordplay and satirical wit. One of his most famous works is the poem "The Bridge of Sighs," which explores the themes of poverty, despair, and social injustice. However, another lesser-known but equally intriguing piece by Hood is the poem "Straight down the Crooked Lane, and all round the Square."
