Notebook Fragment
The Moon, how definite its orb!
Yet gaze again, and with a steady gaze –
'Tis there indeed – but where is it not? –
It is suffused o'er all the sapphire Heaven,
Trees, herbage, snake-like stream, unwrinkled Lake,
Whose very murmur does of it partake.
And low and close the broad smooth mountain
Is more a thing of Heaven than when
Distinct by one dim shade and yet undivided from the universal cloud
In which it towers, finite in height –
–Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)
