After the feast my Shapcot see	A
The fairy court I give to thee	A
Where we'll present our Oberon led	B
Half tipsy to the fairy bed	B
Where Mab he finds who there doth lie	C
Not without mickle majesty	A
Which done and thence remov'd the light	D
We'll wish both them and thee good night	D
	-
Full as a bee with thyme and red	B
As cherry harvest now high fed	B
For lust and action on he'll go	E
To lie with Mab though all say no	E
Lust has no ears he's sharp as thorn	F
And fretful carries hay in's horn	F
And lightning in his eyes and flings	G
Among the elves if moved the stings	G
Of peltish wasps well know his guard	H
Kings though they're hated will be fear'd	I
Wine lead s him on Thus to a grove	J
Sometimes devoted unto love	K
Tinselled with twilight he and they	L
Led by the shine of snails a way	L
Beat with their num'rous feet which by	C
Many a neat perplexity	A
Many a turn and many a cross	M
Track they redeem a bank of moss	M
Spongy and swelling and far more	N
Soft than the finest Lemster ore	N
Mildly disparkling like those fires	O
Which break from the enjewell'd tyres	O
Of curious brides or like those mites	O
Of candi'd dew in moony nights	O
Upon this convex all the flowers	O
Nature begets by th' sun and showers	O
Are to a wild digestion brought	P
As if love's sampler here was wrought	P
Or Citherea's ceston which	Q
All with temptation doth bewitch	Q
Sweet airs move here and more divine	R
Made by the breath of great eyed kine	R
Who as they low impearl with milk	S
The four leaved grass or moss like silk	S
The breath of monkeys met to mix	O
With musk flies are th' aromatics	O
Which 'cense this arch and here and there	T
And farther off and everywhere	T
Throughout that brave mosaic yard	H
Those picks or diamonds in the card	H
With peeps of hearts of club and spade	U
Are here most neatly inter laid	U
Many a counter many a die	C
Half rotten and without an eye	C
Lies hereabouts and for to pave	V
The excellency of this cave	V
Squirrels' and children's teeth late shed	B
Are neatly here enchequered	B
With brownest toadstones and the gum	W
That shines upon the bluer plum	W
The nails fallen off by whitflaws art's	O
Wise hand enchasing here those warts	O
Which we to others from ourselves	O
Sell and brought hither by the elves	O
The tempting mole stolen from the neck	X
Of the shy virgin seems to deck	X
The holy entrance where within	R
The room is hung with the blue skin	R
Of shifted snake enfriez'd throughout	B
With eyes of peacocks' trains and trout	B
Flies' curious wings and these among	Y
Those silver pence that cut the tongue	Y
Of the red infant neatly hung	Y
The glow worm's eyes the shining scales	O
Of silv'ry fish wheat straws the snail's	O
Soft candle light the kitling's eyne	R
Corrupted wood serve here for shine	R
No glaring light of bold fac'd day	B
Or other over radiant ray	B
Ransacks this room but what weak beams	O
Can make reflected from these gems	O
And multiply such is the light	B
But ever doubtful day or night	B
By this quaint taper light he winds	O
His errors up and now he finds	O
His moon tann'd Mab as somewhat sick	Z
And love knows tender as a chick	Z
Upon six plump dandillions high	C
Rear'd lies her elvish majesty	B
Whose woolly bubbles seem'd to drown	R
Her Mabship in obedient down	R
For either sheet was spread the caul	A2
That doth the infant's face enthral	B2
When it is born by some enstyl'd	B
The lucky omen of the child	B
And next to these two blankets o'er	C2
Cast of the finest gossamore	C2
And then a rug of carded wool	D2
Which sponge like drinking in the dull	E2
Light of the moon seemed to comply	C
Cloud like the dainty deity	B
Thus soft she lies and overhead	B
A spinner's circle is bespread	B
With cob web curtains from the roof	F2
So neatly sunk as that no proof	F2
Of any tackling can declare	C2
What gives it hanging in the air	C2
The fringe about this are those threads	O
Broke at the loss of maidenheads	O
And all behung with these pure pearls	O
Dropp'd from the eyes of ravish'd girls	O
Or writhing brides when panting they	B
Give unto love the straiter way	B
For music now he has the cries	O
Of feigned lost virginities	O
The which the elves make to excite	B
A more unconquered appetite	B
The king's undrest and now upon	R
The gnat's watchword the elves are gone	R
And now the bed and Mab possess'd	B
Of this great little kingly guest	B
We'll nobly think what's to be done	R
He'll do no doubt this flax is spun	R
