The Cloud Capp´d Towers
Extract from the 'Three Shakespeare Songs'
2. The cloud-cappd towers
The cloud-cappd towers, the gorgeous palaces, The solemn temples, the great globe itself, shall dissolve, And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, leave not a rack behind: We are such stuff as dreams are made on, And our little life is rounded with a sleep. |
