"I saw him on Primrose Hill"

It was a relatively cold January night and my last one in London, I remember having to pull my shawl closer around me as the wind rushed towards us. We stood atop Primrose Hill, looking over the London skyline. My cousin pointed out the BT Tower, something about Coldplay's lyrics of Fix You “lights will guide you home” being an allusion to following the sight of the said tower home after a night out as freshmen or as the English say "first-years". I walked on a ledge at the peak and read the inscription on the cement: “I have conversed with the spiritual Sun. I saw him on Primrose Hill” Later we walked around the city that quiet night and reached a roundabout also close to the road that holds Neal's Yard, & we obnoxiously sat in the middle by the tall column - taking in the soft whooshes of the passerby cars as they headed their own ways into the night.
