Suppose

Suppose ... and suppose that a wild little Horse of Magic
    Came cantering out of the sky,
With bridle of silver, and into the saddle I mounted,
    To fly, and to fly;

And we stretched up into the air, fleeting on in the sunshine,
    A speck in the gleam,
On galloping hoofs, his mane in the wind out-flowing,
    In a shadowy stream;

And oh, when, all lone, the gentle star of evening
    Came crinkling into the blue,
A magical castle we saw in the air, like a cloud of moonlight,
    As onward we flew;

And across the green moat on the drawbridge we foamed and we snorted,
    And there was a beautiful Queen
Who smiled at me strangely; and spoke to my wild little Horse, too,
    A lovely and beautiful Queen;

And she cried with delight, and delight, to her delicate maidens,
    'Behold my daughter, my dear!'
And they crowned me with flowers, and then to their harps sate playing,
    Solemn and clear;

And magical cakes and goblets were spread on the table;
    And at window the birds came in;
Hopping along with bright eyes, pecking crumbs from the platters,
    And sipped of the wine;

And splashing up, up to the roof tossed fountains of crystal;
    And Princes in scarlet and green
Shot with their bows and arrows, and kneeled with their dishes
    Of fruits for the Queen;

And we walked in a magical garden with rivers and bowers,
    And my bed was of ivory and gold;
And the Queen breathed soft in my ear a song of enchantment,
    And I never grew old....

And I never, never came back to the earth, oh, never and never;
    How mother would cry and cry!
There'd be snow on the fields then, and all these sweet flowers in the winter
    Would wither, and die....

Suppose ... and suppose ...
