28My spirit kisseth thine,My spirit embraceth thee:I feel thy being twineHer graces over me,In the life-kindling foldOf God’s breath; where on high,In furthest space untoldLike a lost world I lie:And o’er my dreaming plainsLightens, most pale and fair,A moon that never wanes;Or more, if I compare,Like what the shepherd seesOn late mid-winter dawns,When thro’ the branchèd trees,O’er the white-frosted lawns,The huge unclouded sun,Surprising the world whist,Is all uprisen thereon,Golden with melting mist.

Of God’s breath; where on high,

In furthest space untold

And o’er my dreaming plains

Lightens, most pale and fair,

A moon that never wanes;

On late mid-winter dawns,

When thro’ the branchèd trees,

O’er the white-frosted lawns,

The huge unclouded sun,Surprising the world whist,Is all uprisen thereon,Golden with melting mist.

The huge unclouded sun,

Surprising the world whist,

Is all uprisen thereon,

Golden with melting mist.
