Chapter 54

Over hill, over dale,Through bush, through briar,Over park, over pale,Through flood, through fire,I do wander everywhere,Swifter than the moon’s sphere;And I serve the Fairy Queen,To dew her orbs upon the green.The Cowslips tall her pensioners be;In their gold coats spots you see;Those be rubies, Fairy favours,In those freckles live their savours.I must go seek some dew-drops here,And hang a pearl in every Cowslip’s ear.Shakespeare

Over hill, over dale,

Through bush, through briar,

Over park, over pale,

Through flood, through fire,

I do wander everywhere,

Swifter than the moon’s sphere;

And I serve the Fairy Queen,

To dew her orbs upon the green.

The Cowslips tall her pensioners be;

In their gold coats spots you see;

Those be rubies, Fairy favours,

In those freckles live their savours.

I must go seek some dew-drops here,

And hang a pearl in every Cowslip’s ear.
