Nature
Fragment: The Sun (for now his orb 'gan slowly sink)
From Complete Poetical Works, ed. E. H. Coleridge (1912)
Nature
The Sun (for now his orb 'gan slowly sink)
Shot half his rays aslant the heath whose flowers
Purpled the mountain's broad and level top;
Rich was his bed of clouds, and wide beneath
Expecting Ocean smiled with dimpled face.
