It adds a precious seeing to the eye.

Love's Labour's Lost. det ir Sc. 3.

As sweet and musical

As bright Apollo's lute, strung with his hair;
And when Love speaks, the voice of all the gods
Makes heaven drowsy with the harmony.

[blocks in formation]

They sparkle still the right Promethean fire;
They are the books, the arts, the academes,
That show, contain, and nourish all the world.

When daisies pied and violets blue,

And lady-smocks all silver-white,

And cuckoo-buds of yellow hue

Do paint the meadows with delight,
The cuckoo then, on every tree,
Mocks married men.

And the imperial votaress passed on,

In maiden meditation, fancy-free.

Yet mark'd I where the bolt of Cupid fell :

It fell upon a little western flower,

Before milk-white, now purple with love's wound,

[blocks in formation]

I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine.
A lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing.

Ibid

Act in. Sc. 1.

Bless thee, Bottom! bless thee! thou art translated.

Like to a double cherry, seeming parted,
But yet an union in partition.

Two lovely berries moulded on one stem.

Ibid. Sc. 2.

I have an exposition of sleep come upon me. Art ir. Sc. 1.

I have had a dream, past the wit of man to say what dream it was.

Ibid.

The eye of man hath not heard, the ear of man hath not seen, man's hand is not able to taste, his tongue to conceive, nor his heart to report, what my dream was.
