(bouncy music) (birds chirping) - Our revels now are ended.
These our actors, as I foretold you, were all spirits and are melted into air, into thin air.
And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, the cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces, the solemn temples, the great globe itself, ye, all which it inherit, shall dissolve.
(gentle music) And like this insubstantial pageant faded, leave not a rack behind.
We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.
Sir, I am vex'd, bear with my weakness, my brain is troubled.
Be not disturbed by my infirmity.
If you be pleased, retire into my cell and there repose, a turn or two I'll walk, to still my beating mind.
(gentle music)
