Have I dreamed? or was it real, / What I saw as in a vision, / When to marches hymeneal / In the land of the Ideal / Moved my thought o'er Fields Elysian?

What! are these the guests whose glances / Seemed like sunshine gleaming round me? / These the wild, bewildering fancies, / That with dithyrambic dances / As with magic circles bound me?
