From Oberon in fairye land, The king of ghosts and shadowes there,Mad Robin I, at his command, ;Am sent to viewe the night-sports here.What revell routIs kept about,In every corner where I go, I will oersee, and merry bee,And make good sport, with ho, ho, ho! More swift than lightening can I fiye About this aery welkin soone,And, in a minutes space, descrye Each thing thats done belowe the moone,Theres not a hagOr ghost shall wag,Or cry, ware Goblins ! where I go ; But Robin I their feates will spy,And send them home, with ho, ho, ho!
