Fragment: Wine Of The Fairies.

Topics: classic

I am drunk with the honey wine     Of the moon-unfolded eglantine,     Which fairies catch in hyacinth bowls.     The bats, the dormice, and the moles     Sleep in the walls or under the sward     Of the desolate castle yard;     And when 'tis spilt on the summer earth     Or its fumes arise among the dew,     Their jocund dreams are full of mirth,     They gibber their joy in sleep; for few     Of the fairies bear those bowls so new!
