innocence v/s reasoning

My syllabus in India barely exposed me to Shakspeare's work.
Till I read the following I did not know how good Shakspeare's is...:-)


---------------------------------------------------
The charm dissolves apace,
And, as the morning steals upon the night,
Melting the darkness, so their rising senses
Begin to chase the ignorant fumes that mantle
Their clearer reason
---------------------------------------------------


Very poetic way of saying how day light's reality blows away nightly fantasies.
