WHICH IS THE DREAM, OR DREAM WITHIN A DREAM OR APPLE OF GOLD AND SIVER PEAR
Apple of gold and silver pear
I cannot pluck you from the orchard of dream
You merely shine there
Canopied by the blue silken skies
That ripple everywhere.
Made to be ornamental;
I shall abide your shade
Beauty far removed still casts its shadows
And in extremity I will drink orangeade
Waking up to find the table laid
The chair drawn up by the cooling fans.
The Spanish fountains.
