The spider holds a silver ball

The Spider holds a Silver Ball
In unperceived Hands -
And dancing softlyas He knits to Himself
Pursues his pearly strands -His CoilYarn of Pearl - expends -unwinds -

He plies from nought to nought -
In unsubstantial Trade -
Supplants our Tapestries with His -
In half the period -

An Hour to rear supreme
Histheories Continents of Light -
Thenperish by dangle from the Housewife's Broom -
Hissophistries - Boundaries - forgot -
