The eclipse last night was incredible!
| The loveliest moon, that ever silver’d o’er | |
| A shell for Neptune’s goblet: she did soar | |
| So passionately bright, my dazzled soul | |
| Commingling with her argent spheres did roll |
|
| Through clear and cloudy, even when she went | |
| At last into a dark and vapoury tent— | |
| Whereat, methought, the lidless-eyed train | |
| Of planets all were in the blue again. | |
| To commune with those orbs, once more I rais’d |
|
| My sight right upward: but it was quite dazed | |
| By a bright something, sailing down apace, | |
| Making me quickly veil my eyes and face: | |
| Again I look’d, and, O ye deities, | |
Who from Olympus watch our destinies!
| Whence that completed form of all completeness? | | | Whence came that high perfection of all sweetness? |
---- Keats, from Endymion
