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