Secrets of London

The Secrets of London were a collection of music boxes scattered throughout London by the Assassin Michel Reuge; inside the music boxes were discs, marked with the Assassin insignia, that acted as keys for Reuge's Vault, in which he presumably hid a Piece of Eden. 31 discs were accompanied with a poem—often an excerpt of the anonymously written 17th century poem —except disc number 15, which was found inside the Vault. Once the British Assassins Evie and Jacob Frye found all the discs, Minerva's Aegis outfit that she wore during the Human-Isu War was unlocked from the vault and Evie claimed it for herself.Assassin's Creed: Syndicate

But I will find Bonny Maud, merry mad MaudAnd seek whate'er betides herYet I will love beneath or aboveThe dirty earth that hides her.
|-|#02 - CITY OF LONDON=
While I do sing, any foodFeeding drink or clothing?Come dame or maid, be not afraid,Poor Tom will injure nothing.
|-|#03 - THAMES=
With a thought a look for Maudlin,And a cruse of cockle pottage,With a thing thus tall, Sky bless you all,I befell into this dotage.
|-|#04 - BUCKINGHAM=
I slept not since the Conquest,Till then I never waked,Till the rougish boy of love where I layMe found and stript me naked.
|-|#05 - LAMBETH=
I know more than Apollo,For oft when he lies sleepingI see stars as mortal warsIn the wounded welkin weeping.
|-|#06 - LAMBETH=
The moon embraced her shepherd,And the Queen of Love her warrior,While the first doth horn the star of morn,And the next the heavenly farrier.

|-|#07 - THE STRAND=
Of thirty bare years have ITwice twenty been enragedAnd of forty been three times fifteenIn durance soundly caged.
|-|#08 - LAMBETH=
On the lordly lofts of BedlamWith stubble soft and dainty,Brave bracelets strong, sweet whips, ding-dong,With wholesome hunger plenty.
|-|#09 - SOUTHWARK=
When I short have shorn my sour-faceAnd swigged by horny barrelIn an oaken inn, I pound my skinAs a suit of gilt apparel.
|-|#10 - THE STRAND=
The moon's my constant mistress,And the lonely owl my marrow;The flaming drake and the night crow makeMe music to my sorrow.
|-|#11 - CITY OF LONDON=
The spirits white as lightningWould on my travels guide meThe stars would shake and the moon wouldWhenever they espied me.
|-|#12 - SOUTHWARK=
And then that I'll be murderingThe Man in the Moon to the powderHis staff I'll break, his dog I'll shakeAnd there'll howl no demon louder.

|-|#13 - WESTMINSTER=
With a host of furious fancies,Whereof I am commander,With a burning spear and a horse of air,To the wilderness I wander.
|-|#14 - THAMES=
By a knight of ghosts and shadowsI summoned am to tourneyTen leagues beyond the wide world's end—Methinks it is no journey.
|-|#16 - THE STRAND=
The palsy plagues my pulsesWhen I prig your pigs or pullen,Your culvers take, or matchless makeYour Chanticleer or sullen.
|-|#17 - CITY OF LONDON=
When I want provant, with HumphreyI sup, an when benightedI repose in Paul's with waking souls,Yet never am affrighted.
|-|#18 - WHITECHAPEL=
The Gipsys, Snap and PedroAre none of Tom's comradoes,The punk I scorn, and the cutpurse swornAnd the roaring boy's bravadoes.
|-|#19 - LAMBETH=
The meek, the white, the gentle,Me handle not nor spare not;But those that cross Tom RynosserossDo what the panther dare not

|-|#20 - THAMES=
That of your five sound sensesYou never be forsaken,Nor wander from your selves with TomAbroad to beg your bacon.
|-|#21 - THAMES=
I'll bark against the Dog-StarI'll crow away the morningI'll chase the Moon till it be noonAnd I'll make her leave her horning.
|-|#22 - WHITECHAPEL=
I now repent that everPoor Tom was so disdain-edMy wits are lost since him I crossedWhich makes me thus go chained.
|-|#23 - CITY OF LONDON=
So drink to Tom of BedlamGo fill the seas in barrelsI'll drink it all, well brewed with gallAnd maudlin drunk I'll quarrel
|-|#24 - SOUTHWARK=
For to see Mad Tom of BedlamTen thousand miles I travelledMad Maudlin goes on dirty toesTo save her shoes from gravel.
|-|#25 - THE STRAND=
Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boysBedlam boys are bonnyFor they all go bare and they live by the airAnd they want no drink nor money.

|-|#26 - WHITECHAPEL=
I went down to Satan's kitchenTo break my fast one morningAnd there I got souls piping hotAll on the spit a-turning.
|-|#27 - SOUTHWARK=
There I took a cauldronWhere boiled ten thousand harlotsThough full of flame I drank the sameTo the health of all such varlets.
|-|#28 - WESTMINSTER=
My staff has murdered giantsMy bag a long knife carriesTo cut mince pies from children's thighsFor which to feed the fairies.

And from their gilded palaces
With a crown of green, light feet so keen
I'll have their silver chalices.

I took a climb to HeavenAnd saw the stars a-movingIn pirouettes and batonnetsFor Galileo's proving.
|-|#32 - WESTMINSTER=
I walked the world's four cornersAnd heard the roll of thunderI smelled the rain and felt life's painAnd all the world's wide wonder.

==Behind the scenes==
Although secret #15 does not come with a poem in-game, the game files have the following poem associated with it:
:From the hag and hungry goblinThat into rags would rend ye,All the sprites that stand by the naked manIn the book of moons, defend ye.
The game files also include database entries of Michel Reuge's journal dealing with finding the Aegis and his work on the music boxes.
