  "Elves, urchins, goblins all, and little fairyes." --Mad Prankes.

	"I do wander everywhere,
	 Swifter than the moone's sphere;
	 And I serve the fairy queen,
	 To dew her orbs upon the green." --SHAKESPEARE.

	"By the moon we sport and play;
	 With the night begins our day;
	 As we dance the dew drop doth fall--
	 Trip it little urchins all;
	 Lightly as the little bee,
	 Two by two, and three by three,
	 And about we go, and about go we."
				--LYLIE, Maydes' Metamorphoses.
