Excerpt from Prince Hagen: A Phantasy
In this particular case, I think it was the first named of them and the last; it was a very warm day, and a hammock is a treacher ous contrivance; the streamlet tinkled on, and the wind swayed the pine-trees gently. I sat for some time much entertained with the thoughts that teemed in my brain, and not altogether unaware that it was a fine emotion, and one that people would justly admire; then, entirely without realising it, and still imagining that I was hard at work, I began to nod. It was too late for any resistance then; the demons had it all their own way, and must have laughed a great deal; in a few minutes more I was fast asleep.
