Union


Isbells - Reunite


"Now this enchantress claims that her spells can liberate
One heart, or can inject love-pangs, just as she wishes;
Can stop the flow of rivers, send the stars flying backwards,
Conjure ghosts in the night: she can make the earth cry out
Under one's feet, and elm trees come trooping down from the mountain."
- Dido in Book IV, lines 457-461; The Aeneid by Virgil (Oxford World's Classics)

Joseph Noel Paton's "The Reconciliation of Oberon and Titania" (1847)

You have power over someone.
