The Jumbler again mounts Pegasus, and carries us through the Realm of Dreams, where we come in touch with the Life Romantic.
The Jumbler recites:
| All Mine in Dreams. |
| Should Dreams Come True. |
| Lotus Eating. |
All Mine in Dreams
The Jumbler, thinking of "The Little House," also thinks of a little house-keeper.
O little girl with wondrous eyes
And charms of Graces Three!
"How have you come, why have you come
To mean so much to me?"
Unrest within my heart you've raised—
And yet, how sweet it seems!
My hopes, My dear, this much I know:
You're mine, all mine, in dreams.
O little maid, dear, dearest maid,
Should you be lost to me
Were I to wake and straightway go
And tell my love to thee?
What powers or aid could I invoke?
Alas! dear one, it seems
The risk's too great of losing all—
So mine still stay in dreams.
