Cirrus
But higher & higher mounts the noble aspiree
Redemption is a heavenly, lovely impulse –
A fleecy pile (heaped up) dissolves itself
Tripping like a lamb it is softly combed to the heap
So flies at last what had it berth beneath
To the father above tranquilly – to his bosom & his hand.
Nimbus
But now again by the attractive power of earth
That is drawn down again which was mounted so high
In maddened thunder-storms it speaks
Like contending armies – they roll & are blown away
To the busy earth – a suffering destiny!
Lift your thoughts with this picture before you
Speech goes downward – as she describes –
The spirits soars upwards – & remains for ever there.
