JoC . Your Gtace is pleas d To honour your poor liegeman . Dor . Now be gone . Joe . Farewell unto your Grace , and eke to you . Tititatie , my noble lords ; farewell . \ JExit Dor . Tititatie , my noble fool ; farewell . # * # * * So , we are clean got off . Come , noble peers Of Faery , come attend our Royal Grace : Let ' s go and share our fruits with our Queen Mab , And the other dairy-maids : where of this theme * We will discourse amidst our cakes and cream .
CHORUS OF FAIRIES . Cum tot poma habeamus , Triumphos lseti jam canamus . Faunos ego credam ortos , Tantum ut frequentant hortos , I domum , Oberon , ad Mas Qua ? nos manent nunc oncillas ; Quarum osculemur sinum , Inter poma , lac , et vinum .
[ Now for all this store of apples , Laud we with the voice of chapels . Elves , methinks , were ordain'd solely To keep orchard-robbing holy . Home then , home ; let ' s recreate us With the maids whose dairies wait us ; Kissing them , with pretty grapples , All midst junkets , wine / and apples . ]
It appears to us , magazmically speaking ( that is , modestly ; for a magazine is absolutely lost , if it does not practise this kind of bashfulness ) that we have hit a point of novelty in thus making an article out of a bit of an author .
But a relish is a relish , far better than " your loads of meat ;" and we hope to welcome the reader often to this sort of dainty of old English literature , ever fresh as the junkets of the fairies .
