The Moon, how definite its orb! <br /> Yet gaze again, and with a steady gaze-- <br /> 'Tis there indeed,--but where is it not?-- <br /> It is suffused o'er all the sapphire Heaven, <br /> Trees, herbage, snake-like stream, unwrinkled Lake, <br /> Whose very murmur does of it partake <br /> And low and close the broad smooth mountain <br /> Is more a thing of Heaven than when <br /> Distinct by one dim shade and yet undivided from the universal cloud <br /> In which it towers, finite in height.<br /><br />Samuel Taylor Coleridge<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-moon-how-definite-its-orb-fragment/
