THE ASSEMBLING OF THE FAYS
They come from beds of lichen green,
They creep from the mullein’s velvet screen;
Some on the backs of beetles fly
From the silver tops of moon-touched trees,
Where they swung in their cobweb hammocks high,
And rocked about in the evening breeze;
And now they throng the moonlight glade.
Above — below — on every side.
Their little minim forms arrayed,
In the tricksy pomp of fairy pride.
— Joseph Rodman Drake
