Grateful Dead: Close Encounters into St. Stephen...1/22/78

Grateful Dead: Shakedown Street...10/25/79

At first
the beauty of the melodies
and of the interwoven words
in elven-tongues,
even though
he understood them little,
held him in a spell,
as soon as he began
to attend to them.
Almost it seemed
that the words took shape,
and visions of far lands
and bright things that he
had never yet imagined
opened out before him;
and the firelit hall became
like a golden mist
above the seas of foam
that sighed upon
the margins of the world.
Then the enchantment
became more and more dreamlike,
until he felt that an endless river of swelling gold and silver was flowing over him, too multitudinous for its pattern to be comprehended; it became part of the throbbing air about him, and it drenched and drowned him. swiftly he sank under its shining weight into a deep realm of sleep.
