    All intellect, all sense, and as they please
    They limb themselves, and colour, shape, or size,
    Assume, as likes them best, condense or rare.

A mote it is to trouble the mind's eye.
In the most high and palmy state of Rome,
A little ere the mightiest Julius fell,
The graves stood tenantless, and the sheeted dead
Did squeak and gibber in the Roman streets;
As stars with trains of fire and dews of blood,
Disasters in the sun; and the moist star
Upon whose influence Neptune's empire stands
Was sick almost to doomsday with eclipse.

Invites my steps, and points to yonder glade?
