    		Francis Bacon -- "The Poetry of learning, a kind of dream..."

    "Poetry is as a dream of learning, a thing sweet and varied, and that would be thought to have in it something divine, a character which dreams likewise affect . But now it is time for me to awake, and rising above the earth, to wing my way through the clear air of philosophy and the sciences." -- De Augmentis - 1623
