Background
A description of the experience
Hesperides – Robert Herrick 1648
Thou mak’st me airy, active to be borne
Like Iphyclus, upon the tops of corn
Thou mak’st me nimble, as the winged hours
To dance and caper on the heads of flowers
And ride the sunbeams. Can there be a thing
Under the heavenly Isis that can bring
More love unto my life, or can present
My genius with a fuller blandishment
