Hi there,

Does anyone know the literary reference in the following?

'Donne found girl's dreams "are but fantastical"'. 4 letters and I've got -o-s.

Thanks

By coincidence I've just been reading Donne this afternoon!

It's JOYS:

So, if I dream I have you, I have you,
For all our joys are but fantastical ;
And so I 'scape the pain, for pain is true ;
And sleep, which locks up sense, doth lock out all.
