... This palace standeth in the air,

By necromancy placèd there,

That it no tempest needs to fear,

Which way soe'er it blow it;

And somewhat southward toward the noon,

Whence lies a way up to the moon,

And thence the Fairy can as soon

Pass to the earth below it.

The walls of spiders' legs are made

Well mortisèd and finely laid;
