Most delicate Ariel! submissive thing,
Won by the mind’s high magic to its hest —
Invisible embassy, or secret guest —
Weighing the light air on a lighter wing; —
Whether into the midnight moon, to bring
Illuminate visions to the eye of rest —
Or rich romances from the florid West —
Or to the sea, for mystic whispering —
Still by thy charm’d allegiance to the will,
The fruitful wishes prosper in the brain,
As by the fingering of fairy skill —
Moonlight, and waters, and soft music’s strain,
Odors, and blooms, and my Miranda’s smile,
Making this dull world an enchanted isle.
