Oberon makes a quill from a hummingbird's feather, with which Titania writes a book, for which we still seek. (Copyright expired)
<blockquote>
A Humming-Bird had plumed his wing<br>
With nice fastidious bill,<br>
And Oberon, the fairy king,<br>
Picked up a fallen quill<br><br>
Quoth he, "Of this I'll make a pen,<br>
The neatest ever seen."<br>
He trimmed the tiny quill, and then<br>
He gave it to his queen.<br><br>
The fair Titania wrote a book<br>
With this same elfin quill;<br>
The dainty pen -- I have it, look!<br>
The book I search for still. <br></blockquote>
