+dulled and prosaic with the poison of life. But some of us awake in the night
+with strange phantasms of enchanted hills and gardens, of fountains that sing
+in the sun, of golden cliffs overhanging murmuring seas, of plains that stretch
+down to sleeping cities of bronze and stone, and of shadowy companies of heroes
+that ride caparisoned white horses along the edges of thick forests; and then

+York as London is of Old London and Paris of Old Paris, but that it is in fact

+animate things which have nothing to do with it as it was in life.",

+again, uncovering death and decay; and from its ancient and immemorial bed it
+trickled loathsomely, uncovering nighted secrets of the years when Time was
+young and the gods unborn. Above the waves rose weedy remembered spires. The
+moon laid pale lilies of light on dead London, and Paris stood up from its damp
+grave to be sanctified with star-dust. Then rose spires and monoliths that were
+weedy but not remembered; terrible spires and monoliths of lands that men never
