Tixall Poetry.

Wher the chirping crickets come,
And beetles sing with drousie hum.
Then dance we over feme and furs,
To houles of wolves, and barks of curs:
And when with none of these we meet,
We dance to the ecchos of our feet.

At the night-ravens screeching voice,
When others tremble, we reioice;
And nimbly, nimbly, trip we still,
To the echo of a hollow hill.

Another.


Echo shrill, from the vale to the hill,
The goblins and the satires,
Elves and fairies doe awake,
And the sea nimphs from the waters.
