' For they remember yet the tales we told them 
Around the hearth, of fairies, long ago, 
When they loved still in fancy to behold them 
Quick dancing earthward in the feathery snow. 
But now the young and fresh imagination 
Finds traces of their presence everywhere, 
And peoples with a new and bright creation 
The clear blue chambers of the sunny air."
