A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare
Once I sat upon a promontory,
And heard a mermaid, on a dolphin's back,
Uttering such dulcet and harmonious breath,
That the rude sea grew civil at her song,
And certain stars shot madly from their spheres
To hear the sea-maid's music.

Such shaping fantasies, that apprehend
More than cool reason ever comprehends.
