Queen Mab: Part I.

© Percy Bysshe Shelley

FAIRY
  'Spirit! who hast dived so deep;
  Spirit! who hast soared so high;
  Thou the fearless, thou the mild,
  Accept the boon thy worth hath earned,
  Ascend the car with me!'

Cyder: Book II

© John Arthur Phillips

  Sometimes thou shalt with fervent Vows implore
  A moderate Wind; the Orchat loves to wave
  With Winter-Winds, before the Gems exert
  Their feeble Heads; the loosen'd Roots then drink
  Large Increment, Earnest of happy Years.

Ring Out , Wild Bells

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light;

Love me a little, love me as thou wilt,
Whether a draught it be of passionate wine
Poured with both hands divine,
Or just a cup of water spilt

And they came to a subterranean lake,
and proceeded along the shores of the dark water,
which stirred not, but was golden in places from the light of torches.

Land-Locked

Black lie the hills; swiftly doth daylight flee;
 And, catching gleams of sunset's dying smile,
 Through the dusk land for many a changing mile
The river runneth softly to the sea.

Summer Toils

© Kristijonas Donelaitis

"Of course, it is not nice for a gray-headed man,
To be shamed by the work of a young nincompoop,
When he intends to get more dollars for his pay,
And e'en is not ashamed to pry out more seed grain.
O what became of the bewhiskered Prussian days,
When hired help was so cheep and so obedient?

Pleading before the Cyprian Queen.
The counsel for the fair began
Accusing the false creature, man.

Beneath a burning sky,
The worthless bramble with'ring stands,
And only grows to die.
