First Line: The clouds, the source of rain, one stormy night
Last Line: Let’s let my heavenly lostness overwhelm me
Subject(s): Heaven; Paradise
The clouds, the source of rain, one stormy night
Offered an opening to the source of dew
Which I accepted with impatient sight,
Looking for my old sky-marks in the blue
But stars were scarce in that part of the sky,
And no two were of the same constellation -
No one was bright enough to identify;
So 'twas with not ungrateful consternation,
Seeing myself well lost once more, I sighed,
Where, where in Heaven am I? But don't tell me!
O opening clouds, by opening on me wide.
Let's let my heavenly lostness overwhelm me
