Epilogue
Our revels now are ended.
These our actors,
As I foretold you,were all spirits
and
Are melted into air-into thin air:
And, like the baseless fabric of
this vision,
The cloud capp'd towers, the gorgeous
palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe
itself,
Yea, all which inherit it shall
dissolve
And, like this insubstantial pageant
faded,
Leave not a rack behind.
We are such stuff
Dreams are made on, and our little
life
Is rounded with a sleep.
William Shakespeare's "The Tempest"
