#3  "In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:...
A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice!...
And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
His flashing eyes, his floating hair!
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close your eyes with holy dread
For he on honey-dew hath fed,
And drunk the milk of Paradise."

Kubla Khan
