"He that hath found some fledged bird's nest may know,
At first sight, if the bird be flown;
But what fair well or grove he sings in now,
That is to him unknown.
And yet, as angels in some brighter dreams
Call to the soul while man doth sleep;
So some strange thoughts transcend our wonted themes,
And into glory peep."
Henry Vaughan, 1655.
