    In dress, habits, manners, provincialism, routine and narrowness,
    he acquired that charming insolence, that irritating
    completeness, that sophisticated crassness, that overbalanced
    poise that makes the Manhattan gentleman so delightfully small in
    his greatness.

Some day this old Broadway shall climb to the skies,
As a ribbon of cloud on a soul-wind shall rise,
And we shall be lifted, rejoicing by night,
Till we join with the planets who choir their delight,
The signs in the streets and the signs in the skies
Shall make a new Zodiac, guiding the wise,
And Broadway make one with that marvelous stair
That is climbed by the rainbow-clad spirits of prayer.

stuff. "Little old New York's good enough for us"--that's what
they sing.
