Our reyels are now ended. These our &C

AS / foretod you. were all spirits, and
Are melted into air, into thin air;
And. like the baseless fabric OF this vision.
The handicapped towers, the gorgeous

The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Yea, all which it inhabit. shall dissolve
And. like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind We are such
As dreams are made of. and our little life
