..........That the absence of the sun
Is not the cause of Night--
.....Forasmuch as this light is
...............So great 

..........It may illuminate the Earth
all over at once..........but
.....That Night is brought on
..............By the 

.. 

........Influence of dark Stars--
That ray out darkness upon
.....The Earth, as the sun
..............Does Light. 

..........--José Garcia Villa

of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, vol 1 )
