Fairy Elves Whose midnight revel, by a forest side,Or fountain, some belated peasant sees,Or dreams he sees; while over-head the moonSits arbitress, and nearer to the earthWheels her pale course; they, on their mirth and danceIntent, with joeund music charm his ear:At once with joy and fear his heart rebounds.Milton.
