"Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green.
The cowslips tall her pensioners be:
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies, fairy favours,
In those freckles live their savours:
I must go seek some dewdrops here
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear."
― William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

Comments

Devin did as she expected, again settling a hand above her waist to guide her forward. His expression hadn't changed, but there was a definite shift in his demeanor at the comment.

Confusion, as much as a subtle stifling of any enjoyment she might be sensing from him. "Everyone needs a little entertainment now and again," he said casually.
