Since everything is but an apparition, having nothing to do with good or bad, acceptance or rejection, one may well burst out in laughter.
I saw the spiders marching through the air, Swimming from tree to tree that mildewed day In latter August when the hay Came creaking to the barn. But where The wind is westerly, Where gnarled November makes the spiders fly Into the apparitions of the sky, They purpose nothing but their ease and die Urgently beating east to sunrise and the sea.
Double, double, toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble!
Spirits when they please Can either sex assume, or both.
Or art thou but / A dagger of the mind, a false creation, / Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
Our apparitions, the things you know us by, are simply childish. Beneath it is all dark, it is all spreading, it is unfathomably deep; but now and again we rise to the surface and that is what you see us by.
