AN ODE COMPOSED IN SLEEP, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Lovely fairy! Charming sprite!
Last Line: And the prevailing voice of love.
Subject(s): Dreams; Self; Nightmares


LOVELY fairy! Charming sprite!
Kindly listen and appear,
Whether bathed in dewdrops bright,
Or in chrystal riv'lets clear.

Howe'er divine, the mortal youth
Yet hopes thy gentleness to move,
With the soft energy of truth,
And the prevailing voice of love.
