ATOT nobler are the hearts that work than hearts that only dream;

'ANCY high commissioned; send her! 
She has vassels to attend her; 
She will bring in spite of frost, 
Beauties that the earth hath lost; 
She will bring thee, all together, 
All delights of summer weather.

'ELL me where is fancy bred; 
Or in the heart or in the head? 
How begot, how nourished? 
It is engendered in the eyes, 
With gazing fed; and fancy dies 
In the cradle where it lies. 
— Shakespeare. 
T^ANCY is a fairy, that can hear, 
Ever, the melody of nature’s voice, 
And see all lovely visions that she will. 
A SILVERY haze hangs o’er the earth, 
And through its gauzy sheen 
We look in vain for summer’s garb, 
Or spring-tide’s dewy green; 
-Mrs. Osgood. 
Bright, gorgeous tints, like Tyrian dies, 
Gleam on the ravished sight; 
I fancy an enchanted realm 
Revealed in mystic light. —Sallie A. Brock.
