Random but not so out-of-context

Gaily bedight,A gallant knight,In sunshine and in shadow,Had journeyed long,Singing a song,In search of Eldorado.But he grew old - This knight so bold - And o'er his heart a shadowFell as he foundNo spot of groundThat looked like Eldorado.And, as his strengthFailed him at length,He met a pilgrim shadow - "Shadow," said he,"Where can it be - This land of Eldorado?""Over the mountainsOf the Moon,Down the Valley of the Shadow,Ride, boldly ride,"The shade replied - "If you seek for Eldorado!"
