    Higher and higher he lies
    Above me in a blue light
    Shed by a tinted window.”

    “I struck the board, and cried, “No more.
    I will abroad.”
    What? Shall I ever sigh and pine?
    My lines and life are free; free as the road,
    Loose as the wind, as large as store.
    Shall I be still in suit?”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)
