John Donne

“ As in the Bible some can find out alchemy.
Thus vent thy thoughts; abroad I'll study thee,
⁠As he removes far off, that great heights takes;
⁠How great love is, presence best trial makes,
But absence tries how long this love will be;
⁠To take a latitude
⁠Sun, or stars, are fitliest view'd
⁠At their brightest, but to conclude
Of longitudes, what other way have we,
But to mark when and where the dark eclipses be? ”
