Literature

Seven Dials (London). A column with seven dials formerly stood in St. Giles, facing the seven streets which radiated therefrom.
"Where famed St Giles's ancient limits spread
An in-railed column rears its lofty head.
Here to seven streets seven dials count the day.
And from each other catch the circling ray."
Gay: Trivia, i. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
