The isle is full of noises, Sounds, and sweet airs that give delight and hurt not.   Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments   Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices   That, if I then had waked after long sleep,   Will make me sleep again. And then, in dreaming, The clouds methought would open and show riches   Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked   I cried to dream again.”
