    O, it is pleasant, with a heart at ease,
    Just after sunset, or by moonlight skies,
    To make the shifting clouds be what you please,
    Or let the easily persuaded eyes
    Own each quaint likeness issuing from the mould
    Of a friend's fancy.

Who covereth thyself with light as a garment: who stretchest out
the heavens like a curtain:

Who maketh his angels spirits: his ministers a flaming fire:
Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be
removed for ever.
