0:01For my own part
0:03I have never had a thought which
0:05I could not set down in words
0:07With even more distinctness than
0:09That which I conceived it
0:12There is however
0:13A class of fancies
0:15Of exquisite delicacy which are not thoughts
0:20And to which as yet
0:21I have found it absolutely impossible
0:23To adapt to language
0:26These fancies arise in the soul
0:29Alas how rarely
0:31Only at epochs of most intense tranquility
0:36When the bodily and mental health are in perfection
0:40And at those mere points of time
0:43Where the confines of the waking world blend
0:47With the world of dreams
0:50And so I captured this fancy
0:54Where all that we see or seem is
0:58But a dream within a dream
